About APX 100
AgfaPhoto APX 100 (which is now manufactured by others under license, or a re-branded emulsion) is a classic medium-speed panchromatic black and white negative film with a nominal ISO of 100. It is well-regarded for its fine grain, good sharpness, and excellent tonal rendition, offering a classic 'German' black and white aesthetic. APX 100 provides a wide exposure latitude, making it quite forgiving for varying lighting conditions around its box speed. It produces images with pleasing contrast and a smooth, continuous tone. While not the highest resolving film at its speed, its balanced characteristics make it a versatile choice for a broad range of subjects including landscapes, portraits, architecture, and street photography. It responds well to a variety of standard developers, allowing photographers to fine-tune the final look.
