Agfa Agfachrome RSX II 100

Discontinued 2005E-6

Professional general-purpose slide film made to narrow tolerances, which Wikipedia says did not need refrigeration except in hot or humid conditions; its consumer equivalent was CT Precisa. Wikipedia dates it 1999 to 2005.

Wikipedia also lists sheet film without stating sizes, so no sheet size is recorded.

Reciprocity failure

No official data available. The manufacturer hasn't published reciprocity specifications for this film.

For long exposures, try starting with a 1.3 exponent (t' = t1.3) as a baseline and bracket your shots. This is a reasonable middle ground that works for many films.

Agfa's Professional Films sheet includes a reciprocity chart that is not transcribed here.
