Thank you Attila ! You are right , I was astonished myself when I saw the scans .It was the second film exposed meterless (first was with Fed). I realise how much the new technology helps us , but in the same time asleeps our brain.

I'm amazed of the good results you have gotten from this film.
I tried one roll and the results were son bad that put it in the film black list 
Did you develop the film by yourself?.
Congrats for such nice samples.

I was in same with Fuji Superia , I made terrible pictures, Excalibur made stunning ones. I think all dependent how film was stored, C41 film rare go to fridge in shops... and you have pretty hot summers we have too. Also matter how C41 process was done. Here I always got unpredictable results even with own precise C41 process, with own process I think film wasn't properly stored.

Gracias, Jes ! 
No, I didn't developed myself. But I developed a beginning of a relationship with the guys wich are operating the only lab in town that still develop film.
So , I asked them to be careful at manipulating , and to clean properly the machine. On the other hand , they had some more to work , tipically , in the summer so the "juices" were renewed accordingly.
Sincerely, I was amazed myself , also. So, it seems that ,for a while , maybe I'll have a honnest lab to work with.At least I hope.
As for the film , indeed , nothing special ,and the 200 ISO isn't tipically more than a compromise .If I'd have to choose , I'd choose 100 or 400 (or even 800 ,for the sake of experimenting) , but It's the cheapest and it's here , at the store. Last but not least , it's expiring in 2014. stored in the store , nothing special shooted in a week after buying.
Let's not forget also the Minolta dimage scanner . I scanned with 4 samples on a frame and saved TIFF
At the end , denoised slightly and sharpened a little for web .

Actually it's not as difficult as I belived before . Just Sunny16 rule applied with creativity and a little more thinking than just digisnapping Everyone should try this .It's a really another sensation than shooting with an automatic camera . Incomparably funnier , and much more rewarding when we look at the results .

I feel the same about mine. I added J12, J9, J11 lenses too. Then I tried a Zeiss Opton Sonnar 4/135 a friend had and that was possibly eve better than my 1957 red P J11 so I too have this dangerous love affair with Contax beginning...
