My guess is that it was rushed to market and was not properly cured.

This new film sucks all to heck it has scratches in even my Rolleicord that has never scratched any film including EFKE/Adox. I love the tones as I did with the old film but this new incarnation is only good for Holgas and other toy cameras... I think Foma should recall all rolls of this film because it is the film I used to love but I can never use again for real work.

 Scratches all over not just long ones but also it has small micro scratches all over the film.

But you did finally get some shots of the cannon's new home.

Yes and the ones of the cannon I took with  APX 100 are hanging to dry right now. I am planning on going back and taking pictures of the inside displays this week it is just that since that day we have had nothing but rain and it makes me want to stay inside. Tri-X at 1000 in Acufine will be what I do in there and I got permission to use a tripod if I need too.

Does APX 100 make the Cannon look better?
