Adox CHS100 II Super 8 stock?

Hi,

fact is that the old CHS100 was produced by Fotokemika in Samobor (Croatia) - see http://www.adox.de/english/ADOX%20Films/Art/Series.html . However ADOX' only Super8-film (ADOX PAN-X Reverso Super8) is rumoured to contain film-stock that was produced by Agfa-Gevaert in Moertsel (Belgium) or by Agfa-Gevaert/Agfaphoto in Leverkusen (Germany)*. So when the rumours are correct, then neither the old CHS100, nor the current CHS100-II are related to the PAN-X.

* = Leverkusen would mean that the film was produced before 2004/2005

Jörg, Pan-X is a reversal stock and has been out for well over a year, so I've never thought them related, either.

A test batch of CHS100-II in Super 8 is planned for November. It will be polyester-based (Yeah! Love that!). If it runs well (which I bet it will) and it will be accepted by the market, more might come. The price will be a bit higher than the current Adox Pan Reverso Stock (which BTW does NOT come from Mortsel).
