Technical Specifications:

  • Orthopanchromatic sensitization
  • Single-layer emulsion
  • Wide exposure latitude

Tips for Optimal Results:

  • Pre-soak: While not strictly necessary, pre-soaking the film in distilled water can help ensure even development.
  • Developer Choice: Consider using a developer like D76 or Rodinal for classic results.
  • Careful Handling: Due to the PET base, handle the film gently to avoid curling and light leaks.

Embrace the past, enhance the future. With ADOX CHS 100 II, you can experience the timeless beauty of classic black and white photography.
