I have no idea what this 'Lomo 92' is, but does it exist in 120?
Lomo
Yes, LomoChrome Color '92 is available in 135, 120... and 110!
In fact there are two versions, vanilla '92 and '92 Sun-kissed. I've only shot a couple of rolls of the original '92 in 135 and 110. I have the Sun-kissed roll waiting, but not much time and not much to shoot. '92 works better for me than Opticolour 200, wet prints are not great, but better than Opticolour 200. '92 scans fine, but this film is quite grainy.

Adox is teasing a "fresh batch" of colour film on Instagram...
This Orwo 200 thing must have been a "group buy" and everybody and their dog will be selling the same stuff?
It’s been well established that Mission was always just a few cold stored 35mm pancakes. Honestly I’m surprised it’s lasted this long.Sorry for being so blunt but Adox won't see another Euro of my money unless they come up with a film that is distributed and ready to buy on fotoimpex or macodirect for at least 10 years without interruptions.
I'm tired of investing time and money on a product only for it to disappear just when I thought I had understood it.

Yes, Agfa stopped coating Microfilm when EPM went under, and Adox is in no position to meet the MOQ if Agfa even has the rights to coat it.Oh, and I read two relatively recent (2025) blog posts that stated that CMS 20 II is now a "discontinued" product as well. Anyone happen to have any factual evidence that this is true?
EDIT: nevermind, I found the Adox post from 2024 that states that they are no longer manufacturing it.
Just buy Rollei 80S and hope Foma didn’t have a bad batch of paper. They’re both Agfa Aviphot 80, and although Adox insists that they did something to it to make it “special”, based on H&D curves it’s literally just a repacked film with dev instructions to pull it about 1/3 stop from box speed (about ISO 64).I also found a post from Adox on April 8, 2024 stating: "Yes, HR-50 is planned in 120." It certainly hasn't happened yet — anyone have any information about HR-50 coming to market in 120 format?

I might be able to make you some 120 rolls of FN-64 (Aviphot 80 sold by Astrum) if I have an extra bulk roll lying around, but failing that I do also have some extra Foto-100 rolls, which is Aviphot 200, and also makes very good slides according to folks on here.Oh, I see. Yeah, not gonna buy Rollei Retro 80S after seeing recent results folks have posted. Even Blue Moon lists it as “an experimental film” and likely to have problems. I’ll pass. And thanks for the warning.

If it helps, I have used tons of Rollei Retro 400S (which is, based on what I've learnt on here Aviphot 200, I believe). I have experience with it mostly in 120.
It's been rock solid. Really wonderful stuff. Zero issues, fantastic QC and the only problems I've had were caused by me: I let a couple of rolls expire and got mild backing paper mottling a la Ilford.
However, - it is a special purpose film for me. Firstly, I need to shoot it at 125 to get the results I'm after. More importantly, it has a strongly red-extended spectral response, so it sucks (for my taste) for portraits of white Caucasian people: ghostly pale skin and cadaverous lips.
Excellent for architecture and street photography though. Monstrously sharp. Tech sheet development times are completely off.
Sadly Macodirect recently jacked its price up by about 40%.
EDIT - just saying this because I don't imagine the retro 80s you're interested in to be vastly different from the 400S I have experience with.
From another thread listing all of the various repackagings of the Aviphot flavors:
Agfa Aviphot Pan 200:
Repackaged as Rollei Superpan 200, Rollei Retro 400s, Rollei Infrared 400, Silberra Pan 160 / Ultima 160, Silberra Pan 100 / Ultima 100, CatLabs 320 Pro and JCH Street Pan.
So Retro 400S and Infrared 400 are the same film, just packaged/promoted as being unique. I'm very familiar with the Rollei Infrared 400, so there's no reason to adopt the Retro 400S, but thanks. My goal was to find a slower/less grainy film I could use an R72 filter with, and the 80S had potential.
