Thirty years ago my wife and I were on a wonderful series of treks in Africa, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and what was then called Rhodesia. Having previously used no color films but Kodachrome, before leaving I had shot a few rolls of Agfachrome and loved the natural, neutral colors and the black blacks. So I took a few rolls of Agfachrome. Today, the Kodachromes are still perfect while the Agfachromes are so faded that in some slides one can almost not make out the subject. Anyone an idea of the archival properties today of the various transparency emulsions? Seth LaK 9 - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
