Only use AGFA film in a Zeiss Contax(posted 8807 days ago)Very wierd, but I started shooting APX 400 with a Contax S2 last year, loved it, then left it for stuff like Technical Pan and other slow films. I just printed my first 'real' enlargements from an Olympus SP35 last night with APX 400 (8x10). It AIN'T got it like the Zeiss. Not even close. :-(
And I think you nailed it: Neopan with Rodinal sounds very promising, even gives me 1/3 stop extra probly (ISO1000-ish). I've used D3200, but the truth is I love Delta (all versions) tonality sometimes, hate it others. I'm starting to be an old-tech guy...
