Wharcliffe Works

Originally uploaded by Mathew Savage.

I must admit, at this point, that I’m not sure of the ettiquette of blogging other people’s work, so it’s my earnest hope that Matthew Savage doesn’t mind my beautifying this post with his shot of Wharcliffe Works.

This shot was taken on APX 100, and perhaps illustrates why there is such excitement over the possibility that Adox may introduce films based on the Agfa APX100 and 400 emulsions. More detail, and some input from Adox themselves can be found in this thread over at APUG (may require (free) registration).

Apparently Adox have bought the recipes and technical know how for the Agfa products.

  1. I’ve got no problems with you using my photo, it’s for a good cause.
    I’ve only ever used two rolls of this film, I’d like to be able to get my hands on some more at some point.

    This is good news. I’ve come back to b&w in the last year or so and I’m working my way through a supply of APX that I thought would be my last.

    Rollei Retro ( http://www.silverprint.co.uk/bwf7.html ) is Agfa APX. I wish they made it in 5×4

    FWIW, this is the Wharncliffe works! (Is it pedantic to point this out?)
