Are Adox CHS100 and PL100 the same?

[Phil Woodney]

I've finally assembled everything I need to start shooting 5x7...except for film. I was an APX100 shooter in 120 and 35mm and still love 400TX in both formats. I've read much about ADOX and thought that might be a good substitute for APX. I see ADOX PL100 listed at Freestyle and J&C, while the ADOX website and dealers in Europe list CHS100.
Can someone tell me if they are different films?

Best regards,
Phil

I think they are the same. Efke 100 & Adox 100 are both the same film. I don't think they make another 100 speed film, but hopefully someone will be able to clarify this question. tim

Thanks Tim! I knew Efke and Adox are the same. It might be that the PL100 and CHS100 are the same but have a different name for a different market. Forte does that with Classic Pan and Fortepan, I think. I do hope someone knows for sure.
