Subject: [Leica] Agfa Scala [wasn't Noctilux bokeh or decline of writing]

In a recent book, I saw some images shot using Agfa Scala in 35mm. It
seems to have very good mid-tones across a wide range. In googling
around, it appears to me that it requires special developing, and that
they developing is rather expensive (like $10 a roll). Being a reversal
film, I assume that the exposure must be pretty darned good to get a
usable print. Do any of you use it routinely? It seems to be a bit of an
orphan.
