Despite shooting HP5 for years I've defected to Adox CHS 100 recently due to the much lower cost for a bulk roll. Not massively pleased with the results though, tonaly ok but images seem quite soft. I've gone through my whole workflow and not been able to work out what the cause is. The most convincing explanation I've heard is it takes longer for the chems to penetrate Adox emulsion, so it tends to benefit from longer development times, although I've got no official info to back this up.
If anyone has any experience with this film and has any suggestions for the cause please fire away. Or if you can recommend an alternative cheapo black and white film, preferably one avaliable in bulk rolls. If not feel free to critique the photos in otherways.
All shot on a Canon FTb - 50/1.4 and deved in Agfa Rodinal at 1+25 and scanned on an Epson V500 Photo
