This is bad news for everyone enjoying the great Fuji Neopan films by “rolling your own”, i.e. buying in 30.5m/100ft rolls. We are disappointed to inform you that Fujifilm has announced that they will drop Neopan 100 Acros 30.5m/100ft rolls, Neopan 400 Presto 30.5m/100ft rolls, Neopan 1600 Super Presto 30.5m/100ft rolls and Neopan SS 30.5m/100ft rolls from their product line in March 2007. We expect a lot of stock-up purchasing before that, leading to fears that the pipeline will run dry long before that and will do our best to counter it. We recommend that you stock up well in advance.
Note that this does not affect the Neopan film supplied ready in cartridges. Neopan will not disappear – for now (?).
Rembrant V fibre based papers are also affected.
