You can get the Agfa Portrait 160 for $3.99 CDN a roll at Henry's. It's not a bad film for portraits, but I found the background color a bit murky (maybe it's the extra grain I see). The Fuji NPS, while not as nice for portraits, has much better overall performance. At $5.50 CDN it's pretty decent. There's a Fuji lab at Denison and Woodbine. Their prices on Fuji film is great, but you have to buy in 5 lots
