Agfaphoto APX 100 - is it Kentmere 100, or modified Kentmere 100?

To avoid any confusion. I'm asking about the product below.



Has anyone shot Kentmere 100 and this product in the image, side by side, and found any differences at all?

The internet consensus is that they are the same emulsion.

Has someone compared them and found if anything else is noticeably different?

I'm particularly interested in any differences regarding support/halation.

Thanks for clarifying the differences between the heritage of the old Agfapan APX 25 and the current film that is the subject of this thread - Agfaphoto APX 100.

And let's not forget AGFAPAN 400, too. They were all great (ISO 25, 100, & 400). Yesterday I defrosted some Agfapan 400 to take some 4x5" portraits of relatives who happen to be in town. The three Agfa B&W films changed their labels over the years (ex., Agfapan 25 vs Agfa APX 25) but I never noticed any difference.

OP if you havent found that video yet :
Althought the choice of the photographed scene doesn't answer your question about difference in halation much
