ADOX CMS20 5x4 sheet film

[A49]

I've decided to order a box of 10x8 Fp4 and then see how I get on with that.

So you shoot with CMS20 at 4x5 inch and FP4+ at 8x10 inch? If yes, please post your comparison of the results. I would be interested how you did like CMS anyway.

Best of luck for your shoting!

I shoot Adox Pan 25 in 8x10 and it is fantastic, I havent found a sharper or finer-grained film. I would look into that.

Hi Andreas, I am only going to be shooting 10x8 at the moment. Although I would consider trying CMS 20 in Roll film when it becomes available.

Mcfactor once I've finished the box of FP4, then I will give the ADOX Pan 25 a try, thanks for the input.

Adrian.

Some Leica and Zeiss lenses can resolve numbers in that range, as crazy as it sounds. However, there is no LF lens that can reach anywhere near that number, due to diffraction.

In LF, the only advantage of CMS 20 over something like TMAX 100 would probably be finer grain. I don't think you'll see any advantage in sharpness.

One day that may change, we have lenses that are not diffraction limited, so stopping them down simply lowers abberrations and improves resolution, these have been demonstrated a few years back to resolve well beyond the diffraction limit... none are available outside physics research atm however (google search negative refractive index).

Though it'll be more useful for compacts and mobile phones imho.
