Is Agfa Vista 200 indeed rebadged Fuji 200?

I was just given a couple of rolls "to see how I like it"  and saw it is made in Japan...
what is it really?  Thanks!

Yes it really is Fujicolor 200. Put the ID number (next to the barcode) into https://dexter.pcode.nl/ for confirmation.

In the UK was can buy 24-exposure rolls from the Poundland discount chain for £1 which currently equals $1.32

Heres a few images to illustrate what the film looks like. I've thrown in a redscaled image and a mono conversion for good measure.

The standard colour shots have probably had the vibrance turned down in Lightroom to suit my preferences.

Kevin, thanks!    :)
These are great and gives me a good idea of what's to come.

Think I'll just load a roll in the Vivitar Wide and Slim and go out driving this weekend.

It's not a bad film at all if you think you can buy it for 1£, now 24 exp, it was 36 few years ago. I usually use one of these to test a camera for the first time.
