Been shooting Portra 800 / 400 120 in my Mamiya6 here in South Florida visiting my family. Lots of pastels and bright colors - looking forward to developing next week when my C-41 chemistry arrives.

Two rolls of E100G in a Soverized F2AS, a part roll of E100VS in my F6 before it went AWOL (command dial is fubared); I then switched over to the F2AS and shot a half roll - give or take - of the E100VS removed from the F6. Twenty-one frames of Tri-X with an M6. The finished rolls of E6 went into the freezer to await a trip to Dwayne's in June, when it should have around 60 of its friends to share the trip to Kansas. The Tri-X, when the roll is completed later today, will join its friends in the "to-do queue."
Do not have all 60 rolls be processed at once. If it batch is bad you will lose all of them. Do a small number each day. When I worked at Baker's Photo in Washington DC when someone came back from a big trip, Mr. and Mrs. Baker would send out a few rolls each day to Kodak for that reason.
Welcome to APUG
Spent most of the am and early afternoon studying Salgado's Genesis, but decided to take a break around 2pm and enjoy the sunshine.) Grabbed my Leica bag (M6 w/28,50 and 90 Summicrons) and some Tri-X and went out for a couple of hours. Net result: I finished off the roll started yesterday as well as an additional roll. Again, into the "to-do queue."
A roll of Tri-X and a roll of Fujicolor 400, both in 35mm.
Steveston this am: two rolls of E100VS in my F3P and two rolls-and-a-bit of TMax100 in an F2 body; Downtown Vancouver late this am and early this afternoon: a roll and four frames of E100G with my F5; Barnet Marine Park late this afternoon (until the fog lifted): two rolls of Tri-X in an M6.
Today and yesterday, acros in 120. When this roll is done I'm going to try the Adox CHS 100 II.
Ilford HP5+
It's nice stuff and responds well to a wide range of developers-I love it in Barry Thornton's 2 bath formula.
Is that somewhat "compensating"? What I mean is that developer would exhaust on the highlights while continuing to work on the shadows? I'll probably try HC-110-e, not sure how long. I would have worried about this more a couple years ago but I figure if I can get "in the ballpark" the negatives will be printable and then I'll go from there!
It is compensating-somewhere on APUG there's probably a film developing times chart or at least a link to one. Otherwise I've found times for Agfa films are pretty good as a starting point for Adox as well [ btw Anchell and Troop's film Developing Cookbook has a useful list of times at the back].
Adox recommends 9 minutes for CHS 100 II in HC-110E at 20°C. I'll probably start there and hope for the best. Maybe 9.5 minutes because their agitation is a little more than I usually do. I find the Ilford recommended time for FP4+ much too long and the Fuji recommended time for Acros much too short, so who knows which way the Adox times will go! Cheers!
Kodak Portra 400 with the Hasselblad 500mm lens on a tripod.
Lots of XP2 in 120, Rollei Superpan 200, Fomapan 100, Delta3200 and Portra 160, also in 120. Plus a load of Fomapan 100 and FP4 + in 4x5.
Fuji Superia 200... it's nothing special, but it or Kodak Gold are my go-to 'test this new old camera I got' when it's a 35mm model.
Just got another Ektar roll processed. Photos have been transferred from the CD to the computer. Just need to add the EXIF data so flickr reports back that the photos were taken with an F3 and an F2, then upload them. Next up is the Superia 400 roll that's in the F. Got about 20 shots left on it at this time.

Tri-X 35mm panorama with an orange filter using the WideLux F7.
Foma Retropan 320 and Hp5 + in my Trip. Also Fp4+ 5 x4 in my Zero Image Pinhole camera.
A part roll (22 frames) of some outdated TMax3200 (EI 800) of the rain and clouds and landscape (and people with umbrellas, people with dogs, etc.) that hung low over Burnaby Mountain most of today; I used one of my favorite Soverized F2AS bodies, and shot everything with a 50mm F1.4 Ais lens.
Balance of the TMax3200 in the camera, plus two additional rolls of the film today. Woke up this am to snow (it started sometime early in the am judging by the accumulation). Inspired, I spent around three hours walking the neighborhood and the SFU campus, photographing snow piled on cars, resting on trees, snow on the buildings on campus, people walking in the snow, etc, etc. A productive and satisfying start to the week. Feel confident that I "got some stuff." 
HP5+ in 120.
