Agreed. I have used A&I when shooting kodakchrome several years ago.
Excellent service.
I too use Agfa for Landscapes. In particular I still have the Ultra 50 in
120, although I do have more 120 slide film than I need. :-)
BTW, I have a few ProPacks of Kodak's Lumiere 120 in my freezer (beed there
for several years now).
If any one is interested I could part with 2-3 of them for a reasonable
offer.
Yes, they are long expired, but I so liked this film that when Kodak
discontinued it I bought a bunch of ProPacks and stuck them in my freezer.
Unfortunately its more than I have a current need for. They are good as new
but sometimes too much is tooooo much.

Barbara,
If you enjoy using Kodachrome as I do try A&I Labs in Los Angeles. They will
sell you mailers and they do Wonderful work! I think you will find their
service superior to Big Yellow (Kodak). . I still shoot alot of Kodachrome
in 35mm for landscapes I love the blue (cyan) skies. Plus it is true
archival as long as it is stored properly in a light tight box. The Nikon
Coolscans will do a great job on Kodachrome, other brands have mixed
results.
I agree with Peter, we all have to use film in our Koni's so it would be a
interesting to learn about different films from the members. For example I
shoot Agfa print film for landscapes instead of slides - which is the
opposite of most photographers. I like huge 24 x30" and 30 x 40" prints and
the grain size in print film is much smaller than slide film. You have to
take out a 2nd mortgage for cibachromes! :)
Sincerely,
Woody Wiyninger
