Rollei Retro 400

Processed my first roll of this stuff earlier in the week. Talk about curl!! I doubt I'll ever be able to straighten it enough to get a print from it.

Interesting - I get a bit of curl from their Retro 100 but nothing major. And none at all from their Retro 80s.

I think there's something about Agfa's base/emulsion manufacturing process that creates this. Kodak is by far the best, Fujifilm next, and Agfa worst when it comes to curl.

It doesn't always curl though - and the more humid the better.

I've never experienced anything like this with Agfa before. I'm talking rolled up lengthwise into an extremely small tube. I'm going to try rewashing and hanging in shorter strips.
