Default Agfa APX 100

I have been onto the Silverprint site to see what Agfa APX100 costs but they no longer stock it or is it a case that it is no longer made under that name? While I'm at it I could not find RO9 has it been renamed Fomadon?

They seem to have it down as Fomadon RO9 expensive for a 250ml developer, Firstcall has RO9 one shot soft pak for around £10 or £11 for 500ml

In other words Rodinal!

AG photographic seem to think that Agfa APX and Kentmere 100 are one and the same

I read that a while ago over on Apug, but Simon Galley came on to deny it, as far as RO9 one shot, it is rodinal by another name, I believe that the Rodinal formula is made
by the bucket load and sold to the various firms to sell by another name, but the only firm allowed to use the name Rodinal is Adox, they bought the name for use in the USa, personally I use the Firstcall softpak RO9,

Thank you gents.
I will going over to the branded Rodinal it is the same as RO9, which I'm just about to run out of.

As for the film I should have checked what I had in the film draw no need to get anymore yet. It is a shame that there is no 120 format.

Agfa APX is long gone, AgfaPhoto APX made by Harman is readily available. Rollei RPX should be the same film, available in 120 as well.

Thanks for that Miha I didn't know it had changed name although I had a feeling it may have done. I'll give the 120 version a twirl
