No other film is sharper; no other film has finer grain or higher resolution (up to 800 lp/mm at high contrast).
Nearly grain-free and ultra-sharp enlargements can be made up to an image size of 2.5 metres diagonal. This is equivalent to a 500-megapixel resolution.
Adox CMS 20 II has cubic silver grains of even grain size coated in a single, ultra-finest-grain, ultra-thin layer. The AHU Anti-halation layer between the emulsion and film base guarantees optimal film sharpness.
Adox Adotech IV developer is the exceptional developer we recommend for use with this film. It is designed to bring the perfect greyscales and tonality to this otherwise very hard-contrast film material. It will give you images with incredible detail that no one will believe were shot on 35mm film. You'll get optimal results in classic pictorial half-tone photography.
With Adotech IV, this film can be used in a light sensitivity range of EI 3/6° up to 25/15°
However, when using a typical standard developer, the light sensitivity increases to ISO 80/20°, and the contrast becomes ultra-hard. The film can be used as a document film when developed this way.

Manufacturer's Description
No other film is sharper, no other film is more finegrained, no other film resolves more lines per mm (up to 800 l /mm).
If used in pictorial photography the film achieves 20 ASA of usable speed in ADOTECH developer. If used for high contrast purposes the usable speed increases to 80 ASA. If developed in non dedicated low contrast developers (HC 110, cafenol etc) it can be exposed at 6-12 ASA. The film achieves grain free enlargements of up to 2,5 meters diagonally. This equals mathematical about 500 Megapixels. 12 Megapixel, which is today's standard in high end digital cameras equals 2,4% of 500 Megapixel. This just as a little comparison on the side....
The special monodisperse ultra high resolution emulsion of the film makes it possible.
The AHU anti halation layer in between emulsion and base material guarantees sharpness yet preventing any halation effect.
ADOTECH developer brings perfect halftones and increases the speed to 20 ASA and creates images no one would possibly believe to have been made with a 35mm camera.
ADOX CMS 20 has an orthopanchromatic sensitization which differentiates perfectly between colors. The CMS 'sees it all'. No green filter is necessary in portrait photography.
The film's base is totally transparent making it theoretically possible to reverse it and use it as an ultrahighresolution slide film with extreme projecting possibilities.
In order to do so you need to combine a reversal process with adotech as a first developer.
Once you shot this film you never want to use anything with less capabilities unless you have too.
