I recently got back from Bryce and used both Agfa Optima II 100 and Konica
Impressa 50. The Afga did a reasonble job, better than the Konica. I think
Agfa films seem more sensitive to the red rock country. My last PUG
submission was shot on the Agfa. I have found that morning light is the
only really great light there.
