25asa Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Since film is starting to bounce back and have a bit of a resurgence, and now that Adox with Mirko finally have most of their pieces in place to produce their own film, is their any chance we might see Efke 25 return, possibly named Adox CHS II 25? I loved this film and have a small stash of it, but not in all formats I use. Plus one day it will run out. It seemed to me the 25 speed film was the sweet spot in the Efke lineup. Anyone else miss this film (minus the problems it had in manufacture)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCL Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I really enjoyed using it...low ISO allowed me to use wider aperture in daylight without ND filters. I hope it gets reintroduced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_hutcherson Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I didn't shoot a ton with it. I loved the look but hated how curly my negatives tended to be. I'd certainly shoot it again if it came back(I never tried it in 120, and all I have left now in 35mm and sheets is 50) and enjoy it, but would hope they could manage to make it not curl as much.

I always made sure I took two shots of everything and allowed for some cropping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchsteammachine Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Adox CMS 20 has superiour resolution to Efke 25 so someone who wants an ultra-high resolution film is likely going for CMS 20. Why would Adox release a film that would divide the already niche market of CMS 20? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
