Do any of you guys use Adox 4x5 film? Good, Bad or So So?
What other film would you compare the look of Adox film to?
Thanks,

I'm waiting for the return of the asa100 film..that was nice
Not holding my breath though...
No point in holding your breath - I guess they have to finish the new facilities in Bad Saarow first. Back in 2019? Who knows?
I liked it in smaller format, but haven't used it in sheets - I am patiently waiting to see if it shows up again.
I used a box of the CHS II a couple of years ago. Roughly similar look to FP4. From memory FP4 is cheaper so I had no reason to buy any more of the Adox.
If we're talking about the Adox CHS 100 II, then I think it has a unique look. It's ortho-panchromatic, so I suppose it's most like Fuji Acros. It was very reasonably priced for me in the US. I still have 50 sheets of 7x17 and 30 of 8x20. I'm looking forward to new production run...
From Adox I use CMS 20.
A film that's was not made for pictorial usage, but for microfilm applications and for extreme resolving power. It's a pain to use it, but it also has some incredible capacities, and a very particular look.
I'm fond of the CHS 100 type II - I like the ortho look. I also like that it will work with long exposures so I can photograph gloomy interiors.

Efke 100 was sold under the Adox CHS name. After Fotochemika went under, a new film was developed by the folks at Fotoimpex called Adox CHS 100 II.
