Adox CHS100 II 35mm Black & White Film has two anti-halation layers (between the emulsion and the base and on the backside), making it ultra sharp. The backside AH layer also diminishes curling and reduces the light-piping effect.
This effect of light penetrating through the base into the cartridge is immanent to all polyester-based films and cannot be fully prevented. CHS 100 II should be protected from bright light which can fog the first few frames. It is best to be loaded in the shadow or subdued light.
You should always load this film in subdued light due to the acetate base which can, if loaded in bright light, transmit light up the film by a few frames
Please note that tanning developers are not recommended for use with this film.
CHS 100 II responds very well to push-processing but do give it a go for 13 minutes @ 20c in our FX-55 for results that are quite simply stunning!
