Re: Re: [Digital BW] No more Agfa Scala?

Color Reflections which has labs all over the US offers Scala processing. Whether they do it in all locations or forward it to one place I don't know (www.color-reflections.com), also there is Main Photo Service Inc. (www.mainphoto.com). There is a list of labs at the Agfaphoto site, obviously there are other labs which are not listed, such as the mentioned .dr5, so it would appear that maybe the processing situation is not as grim as it seems.

A bit more unsettling is the news that the parent company of Agfaphoto gmbh has filed for bankruptcy (http://www.agfaphoto.com/en-US/pdf/AP_PressAnnouncement060205us.pdf), supposedly there will be no problem for worldwide divisions, as they are separate entities  . . . we'll have to wait and see.
