Seriously, CMS 20 is designed to be developed in the Adotech developer.
Sure, you'll get negatives in other developers, but if you want the most out of this film (remember, it's almost a microfilm), Adotech is the correct way.

It works really well with Diafine and the contrast seems to be better controlled than examples I see online. I have no interest in trying adotech. I scan using my DSLR and focus on the film grain. With this film in 120mm I have a hard time finding any grain. Something I can do even with Ilford PanF+. Great film

With Adox developer a great film.
Very sensitive to scratches, so be gentle. Contrasty but also with high resolving power. You can see a few examples in my flickr stream, search for Adox, pictures are tagged.

Scanning can be an issue, due to the thin layer. Dust was in my case always an issue. Follow the instructions for fixing it!
I used it a few time @ ISO 12, or 16, giving also quite good results, when gently developed.
