Is it the one made by Forte in Hungary?
We bought some bulk from Forte two years ago (we=group of
photographers doing digital commercially but interested in old films
for personal pleasure). What we wanted was the 400 version but they
had a badly labeled batch of 200 they sent us in error. Of course upon
densitometry and other tests we found out, and it really was a mistake
on their part, as they offered an instant remedy, exchanging it for
the 400 and some bonus. So far so good.
It was an interesting film, even the 200 version.
But if they have problems, that's sad. Anybody in Hungary could check
it out, please?
Good light!
