Agiflash 35

The Agiflash 35 is a camera for the 35mm format. It was manufactured by Agilux in Great Britain. Agilux also offered the model under other brands. It was also offered under the names “Wards Econo 35” and “Ilford Sprite 35“.

The housing of the camera is made of plastic. The design is very simple and could be called a cliché of a camera. The camera strap is made of cotton and is firmly attached to the camera.

The lens of the 35mm camera cannot be replaced. The focus of the lens is fixed. There are three apertures to choose from, f/8, f/11 and f/16. The exposure time cannot be changed.

The Agiflash 35 does not require power to take pictures. There was an additional flash attachment for the camera.

Films for the Agiflash 35

Without 35mm films, the Agiflash 35 does not work. 35mm films are still produced today and can be developed in most photo labs. Possible films for the Agiflash 35 are the Kodak Gold 200* for color shots and the Ilford XP2 Super* for b/w photos.

Photo film development is offered by many photo labs and prices for this service can vary greatly depending on the type and scope of the service. The recommended colour film is processed in the C-41 development process, which is offered by most photo labs and follows a strict standard.

For black and white development, a special black and white developer is needed as results can vary depending on the developer chosen. Professional photo labs also offer this service. However, you have the best control over the development process if you develop the film yourself. You can find the necessary accessories and developing chemicals online. Popular developers are Rodinal, XTOL, ID-11 and D-76. Smaller suppliers are Adox, Rollei and Foma.

The negatives of Agiflash 35 are 24 mm x 36 mm big. As a rule, 36 shots are possible per film (135-36) at this negative size. The film in the camera must be winded manually, as there is no automatic film transport.
