I recently acquired 10 rolls of Agfa APX 25 35mm. I used 1/2 of one to test, it developed perfectly in Rodinal with no visible speed change or fogging. Just as beautiful as I remembered it. It is expiry date 2005, so definitely towards the end of production.
My problem now is...what do I use the remaining 9 rolls on? Some of you know I shoot mainly outdoors/architectural/ruins, almost never people. I travel western US quite frequently, I've photographed all the usual places pretty exhaustively, but there are always more. I guess I'm just stuck on what I want to use this nearly impossible to find film on. Any suggestions? I think I will probably divide it into two lots and shoot two different places "to completion". My last project with APX 25 was in 2007 at Karlstein Castle in Czechia, I only had 2 rolls that time, but I have well over 50 beautiful negatives from that trip. These I will likely need to use in the US. I will likely use a lot of these shots on future postcard exchanges, as well as my 8x10 wall at home.
What would you do if 10 rolls of gold landed in your lap?
