What? Did Fuji discontinue it?

Yes, I didn't make this up. Laughing

EDIT: Never mind, found some discussions on Google about the previous 120 discontinued and now 135 as well

Do you have any link or press release/news? I believe you, I'd just want to have the link as many friends might not believe me when I tell them.

Haven't seen the 120 offered in the states for months, but Freestyle thinks
they are getting Reala 100 35mm in 36exp rolls by May 21st. I'll believe
it when I see it. Laughing I really liked it in 120, have one roll in the fridge and
that will be it. Will be trying Ektar in 120 to see if I like it better than the
35mm.

I'm sure you'll find the Fuji Japanese link very helpful. Laughing

Strange as a guy on another forum said he got an email from Fuji saying only the 35mm is being discontinued....maybe it's just for Europe.

Well this guy is selling a pack of 20 for £20, but you will have to email him if he will sell/post outside the Uk:-

I bought two packs ages back, the price then was £15 ea with free postage, so each roll with 36 frames was 75p.

erm seems to be a USA thing, maybe digital has taken over more there than in the rest of the world, as not so long ago it was Ferrania film now Reala.

Freestyle now stocks it at a sizable price increase. 120 film is $5.99 per
roll and you can buy a 5-pack of Ektar for $19.99. Fuji is doing limited
production runs when there is a global shortage, so it will be feast and
famine.

Reala's old prices (last time I ordered it) was $3.99 for 120.
