Adox CHS 25 Art

description Adox CHS 25 Art Overview

Adox CHS 25 Art was a low-speed, fine-grain black-and-white negative film distributed by the German brand Adox. With an ISO rating of 25, the film utilized a traditional single-layer silver emulsion based on the historic Efke formulas manufactured by Fotokemika in Croatia. This formulation required careful exposure but yielded extremely high-resolution results, making it highly favored by landscape and still-life photographers. Production of the film permanently ceased after Fotokemika closed its factory and ceased operations in 2012.
