Lomo
I have no idea what this 'Lomo 92' is, but does it exist in 120?

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.

Ok thanks brbo. These all look good to me but puuh...This is so all confusing. I think I'll just go back to Ultramax 400 in 35mm and Gold in 120 and call it a day.

Finally decided to look into this film because I heard a couple people saying that they just got their orders, and… yeah TBH it’s exactly what I expected from ORWO. It looks just as weird and desaturated as normal ORWO. Also a bit disappointing that the 120 is finished by Foma, so the backing paper might completely ruin the film over time…

I do wonder if some of their production compromises regarding the mask are predicated on assumptions about end users scanning (or possibly cinema end users) and that the weaker (and probably cheaper) mask is based off some of the ideas that were posited by Kodak 7299 Scan Film from 20 years ago.

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?

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.
