Hi folks,
Sharing my really bad experience with Adox CHS II 100 14x17 sheet film.
I purchased three packs from FotoImpex late last year and started using them these past weeks.
From the packs I noticed several alarming issues during film loading, first up, I noticed that the paper sheets inside left some powdery residue on the negatives and on my finger tips. These are black paper sheets that kept the negatives apart from each other.
What's worse is that within the packs, most of the negatives didn't have notches! Which made it difficult to know of course which orientation you should be placing the sheets inside your film holders.
This is 14x17 ULF film, and it's not cheap, more so coming from a supposedly reputable brand!
Now for those that had notches, I loaded them and went on a long planned location shoot for two days, and alas, I didn't expect things to get any worse, all the negatives I shot turned out blank.
Now upon contacting FotoImpex, I was informed that this format was discontinued by Adox—I wouldn't be surprised why.
Never again—I do not recommend purchasing from Adox.
