Ok, I defended the APS happy snap system a while back, and I still like it. But don't make the same silly mistake I did.
I bought a store brand film from a big National chain, not sure if it's cool to mention the name here.
Anyway, they're the only place I've that markets APS film with their own house brand. It's made in Italy, and I don't know which film company supplies it. I doubt it would be Agfa or Konica, unless they have an Italian branch.
To get to the point, the film sucks the stars out of the sky. It's flat, grainy, blotchy, the blacks are muck, and the colors are washed out. The 200 is better than the 400, but neither is worth the couple of bucks I saved. And I shot 10 rolls of this crap on my vacation!
I knew better, but I did it anyway. Never again!
I am looking forward to trying the new Fuji 800 APS though.
