Whether you are a photo professional or amateur, we received information that many of you will find a bit disconcerting. One of our suppliers  recently sent us a notice advising us that FujiFilm will be discontinuing a number of color transparency and black & white films in several sizes.

The list below expands the number of films that have been added to the ranks of discontinued analog products. Even though they have been marked for elimination, some of them might be available for a little longer, especially from some mail order houses. If any of your favorite products are on this list, don't waste any time before stocking up. It's possible that import versions will continue to be available, as this announcement was for the elimination of USA products only. Some of these films might be making room for new emulsions or package sizes (although we doubt that), so we will have to wait and see.
