A variable-speed E-6 color slide, ISO 200-400 — a vintage emulsion of unknown origin (likely frozen Agfa or Eastern European stock). Very pronounced grain, a marked warm-orange cast, a strong vintage look. Exposable from 200 to 400 ISO with no change to development. Discontinued in 2020.

Limites

− Very pronounced, unstable grain

The Vario Chrome sparked a lot of controversy at launch — its unclear origin (labeled 'Made in Europe' with no further detail) and uneven performance disappointed some. But for extreme-vintage-aesthetic enthusiasts, its orange casts and massive grain became a sought-after signature.
