Nice shot. What did you use?
Agfa Ultra 50 was only made in 35mm so don't bother looking for 120 or 4x5. It would have been kick ass in larger sizes though! I don't know how well it will have kept, even frozen. Agfa was great in those days. Not only did they have the only "three saturation level" line up of color neg film, they also had APX 25 and 100, two of the best B&W films ever. The 400 was pretty darned good too.
thanks folks. the yellow bellied sapsucker was shot with a Nikon d7100 I was playing with to see how it would handle a 500mm f/4. it is a crop sensor and 24Mpixels. it is a full frame shot at iso 2000, 1/250sec and f/9. even better was getting to watch the bird drill holes in lines either horizontally or vertically up the tree and then revisit them every 20 minutes or so to eat the sap that flowed into the holes. the camera also has a crop mode with 13.1 Mpixels. so think about the reach it can provide. 500mmx1.5x1.3=975mm and with the celestron 1250mmx1.5=1875mm and then in crop mode ~2438mm at 13.1Mpixels. I wonder if one can get many sharp images with that. it might make for some interesting video of a bald eagle nest down the road.

Yeah, it's a little tweaked. I shot this handheld and did the best I could. I tried fixing the distortions in photoshop but got all tied up in knots-you fix one plain and then the other plain gets off and so on. Eventually I surrendered.
