A few months back there were a couple of posts regarding Silvermax, but the film was pretty much sold out world wide. Since that time have any of you been able to get your hands on this new film and if so, what are your impressions?

Every time I visit Freestyle's site they're backordered. I'll wait until supply normalizes before I buy any.

However, I'm very happy with the images I get from Foma 100 and Acros in the 100 ISO category. I do not need the expense or time necessary to learn another 100 ISO film, especially one only available in 35mm.

I love that new films are coming out, but I know how to work with Foma 100 and Acros in the workflow I have, so I don't think I'll buy more than a few rolls of this new film.

Here are some sample shots of Adox Silvermax 100 processed as a positive in dr5 Chrome. All shots are taken in NYC, with my Pentax K2DMD @160 ISO. (Home scans)
