Analog Cafe: Review of ORWO Wolfen NC 500 Colour Film

Dmitri of Analog Cafe has an in-depth review of the Wolfen NC 500 colour film by ORWO.  This film is the only colour film not made by one of the few large film producers.  It is truly unique.  Available from Amazon and eBay, the article has affiliate links to the product.

So, read on and see actual photos and comments on Analog Cafe for Wolfen NC 500 colour film!
