CatLABS 80 II Film Testing Fun Has Begun...Part One!

Do you have any idea what the film is? Obviously Catlabs isn't coating it themselves, so I'm assuming it's a repackaging of something else. Shanghai?

Because its wash water is the same greeny colour, it could very well be Foma or a Shanghai film. I don't think it's Shanghai, I have do use the 100 version... The CatLABS 80 II doesn't do well at that film speed. Very very thin shadows For me it's more like an ISO 32. The Shanghai is closer to 100. They can't be the same. CatLABS claims that it was made "in the spirit of" Panatomic X, but I'm not sure about that. I need proof. I do have an old...very old box of Panatomic X that I'd like to compare it with. I'm also going to compare it to Shanghai 100 sheet film... so much to do so little time!
