Yet another from the ORWOCOLOR QRS 100.
A bizarre shop window. Looks like it hasn't been touched for decades.

If I got some time I went through my archive and scan some old negatives. Now I found another rare film I exposed in 1992. An ORWOCOLOR QRS 100.

This was the first, or maybe second, film offered by ORWO for the Kodak C-41 process instead of the old Agfa-Color process after the end of the GDR. It was only short time at the market, since ORWO Filmfabrik Wolfen was liquidated shortly after it's introduction. Guess it was only available for about 2-4 years.

Got the impression, that the negatives faded quite a bit, although stored in the dark most of the time. But with some effort they could be scanned quite well. So it's hard to say if some colors depend on fading or on the character of this film.

It looks nice for me this Orwo. It's not from Agfa ?

The second picture is great :)

Thanks for posting Fotomas

I don't know if it will help you in New Zealand, Gary, but Vanbar here in Melbourne sell Tetenal kits: https://www.vanbar.com.au/catalogue/index.php?item1=CHEMISTRY&item2=COLOR&item3=FILM

 

Thank you for that Phil, I was on their site last night but the tablet and their site didn't really work, I'll try today.

Also appreciate the help too Erl.

I can't get liquid kits shipped to me in Canada, so I don't use Tetenal products. The powder kit for E6 doesn't seem to have restrictions, and I have a source in Canada (argentix.ca). If all else fails, you could e-mail Jacques Brodeur at info@argentix.ca and ask if he will ship to you.

Thanks Chris, if I can sort this closer to home I will, otherwise...........

Appreciated.

Top shelf, second from left is an old-fashioned breast pump. I used to have one hanging round the office, along with all sorts of ancient medical nonsense. All thrown away now.

The factory in Wolfen is the old Agfa-Filmfabrik where the first Agfa color film was developed in 1935. Today the have a nice Film-museum there, where you can see how film was manufactured. But after the WW II Wolfen was in the GDR and Agfa was split into Agfa-Leverkusen in West Germany and Agfa Wolfen in the GDR.

In 1964 Agfa Wolfen changed the name to ORWO (for Original Wolfen). So it has old Agfa roots but nothing to do with the western Agfa brand since then.

I like this color in background a bit unusual but nice, may be it's natural

It gives a beautiful contrast with the color foreground

Very nice street photo :)

I visited this wall in 2005 and I also have some pictures in color.

But I think in b&w like you show here it's more adapted

Very nice b&w pictures.

Epson V700 is a good scan for b&w in 24x36 or in MF. It works very well

with ANR glass

Thanks for posting Ratz

As promised in my post above, look at this picture taken with Leica MM1

Moiré is really horrible on the bars of the 2 buildings :angry: specially at left 

No moiré in film  :)

attachicon.gif2017_4_17_4398_00006-500.jpg

The fault is due to squarred pixels and smoothing line by camera software
