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. 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. |

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. _________________ Canon A1, AV1, T70 & T90, EOS 300 and EOS300v, Chinon CE and CP-7M.

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. _________________ Canon A1, AV1, T70 & T90, EOS 300 and EOS300v, Chinon CE and CP-7M.

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. |
