I know Adox sells XT-3, which is a clone of XTOL.
The name XT-3 suggests they once sold an XT-1 and XT-2, but my Internet search of those came up empty.
Was there ever an XT-1 or XT-2?

It made me think of a certain digital camera...
And there was a XT-1 and a XT-2, even a XT-4 and a XT-5 too...

PS: I have a X-Pro3 I hardly use and have to charge the nearly depleted battery each time I pick it up...
 
There was a British film made in 1994 called The Madness Of King George III but it was rumored that they had to rename it to just The Madness of King George because in the USA, people asked where were the films 1 & 2?
 
How can we be sure Mirko never worked on the new Xtol and versions XT-1 and XT -2 in a Gothic setting late one night. It reminds me a little a scene from the " Monster Mash "

"From my laboratory in the Castle east
To the master bedroom, where the vampires feast
The ghouls all came from their humble abodes
To get a jolt from my electrodes"

PS if you not about 95 years old and remember Boris Karloff none of the above including the humour will ring any bells or mean anything
 

Every Halloween on the radio!
 
Kodak Xtol would be 1, Fomadon EXCEL would be 2 and the Adox Xtol number 3.

I'm just amazed that those people would recognize the meaning of the "III".
 
I'm glad folks recognized the lightness of my question. I should have added a smiley.
Anyway, maybe the 3 in XT-3 tells us it has 3 advantages over XTOL:

1. Captura (no dust),
2. No borates,
3. More reliable than XTOL.

Hmm, I think I just talked myself into trying it.
BTW, I have Monster Mash in my stash of MP3s. "A jolt from my electrode." And to think that was regarded as high-tech back in the day.

Hardest thing for me is XT-3 looks a bit like lemonade.
 
Back when Mel Brooks' History of the World: Part I came out, everyone was expecting a part II... but many didn't wait for it

It wouldn't surprise me!
