Even if practically banned by most photographers I still shoot on it because I still have a camera that I like a lot (EOS IX ) and a bunch of rolls.
I learned that this film is very sensitive to the quality of the lens. It gives acceptable results only with good lenses , and for me that means the plastic fantastic EF 50/1.8 .Unfortunately this camera doesn't work with EF-S lenses. It also reqiuires a lot of PP
I post these here even if AF because of the analog and not digital support . Hope it is not wrong

Decent results. Quite a bit of difference in white balance between #1 and #3 compared to #2. #2's white balance looks to be the more corrrect one.

So, after you've worked your way through you APS-C stash, what will you do? Is the film still being made by somebody? Aren't the negatives stored inside the film cassette after developing?

You're right , the WB in the third one was really off , I manipulated a bit too much towards warm side . On the first one it is also abit warmer but it was a bit cold in that mountain area and plenty overcast , I wanted to give it a bit of another atmosphere Smile
I don't think I'll buy another set of films ( I still have I think 20-25) .They don't have the special machine to manipulate the film and keep it in the canister after developing , so I had to accept the crude manner to brake the canister and develop the film like bthe classic one .
Probably I'll give up after I'll finish my films .Anyway , The camera was really cheap. I'd like to try a Contax TIX wich it seems to be the best camera for aps-c (best lens).I saw some very nice results somewhere on the net with that cam .But they go around 100E , too much.
I'll stay on the 35mm.APS-C as far as I know isn't made anymore.
I'd like to soot more on 120 but there is no lab around anymore to develop it .And I don't feel like doing it by myself.
