Default Adox ISO 50- New Film

Adox has announced a new film with a rating of 50. It seems to have about the same near IR sensitivity as Ilford SFX so IR shots are possible.
It is only available in 135 at the moment but the price looks reasonable

I am not sure it this has been admitted in so many words but it appears to be an Aviphot aerial film but Adox apparently have effectively pre-flashed the film to render it a low to normal film suitable for non aerial use. It is claimed to be fine-grained

There is some evidence that it has a bit of underexposure latitude but little or no overexposure latitude so unless the aim is a high contrast soot and whitewash look exposing it at say 25 is not a good idea.

120 and sheet film are planned for the future.

Anyone wishing to find out more can look on Photrio where there are two threads on it.

For the IR enthusiasts rating it at 100 and hand-holding with the likes of a 28mm and a R72 filter may be a distinct possiblility

I think that must now be the film I asked about in this thread; but I'll check it out too.

Yes, Adox are just calling it HR-50 now. I'll wait to see some results put up online before trying this; but thank you for the update.

Yes that's the film, Michael, but there is much more information on it now.

I don't think we will have to wait that long before someone will have bought, exposed and processed it.
