This is me being petty, but I refuse to give Fuji a dime for their fake USA films. Kodak kept the market alive so we could get to this point of the film resurgence, and they'll get my money if I want Gold 200 or Ultramax 400.
The funny part is, this stance only hurts Fuji and the chances that they can gear their own film lines back up, but I think that ship has sailed, the writing has been on the wall forever.
That said, I just ordered some X-Tra 400 on Amazon for $10/roll, not too mad about that.

Let us know if you actually get X-Tra 400, or they sent you Fuji 400 aka Kodak.
I think a lot of retailers have just swapped out Fujifilm 400 for Superia X-tra and are not completely updating their sites, i.e. using the same urls, still listing it as Superia X-tra, etc.
I don't know what Kodak it is, but I've been happy with Fujifilm 400 for the price.

Some people say it is Kodak Ultramax.
But not to worry, my case is showing up Saturday. I'll shoot a bunch and post the results. I'm sure it will be just fine!
Today, my kids treated me to a birthday celebration at Disney, and I took some shots on a roll of Fujifilm 400. I'm really curious to see how they turn out!

Happy Birthday! But that treat seems more of a treat for them!

Roll shot and dropped off. Won’t get it back until Monday at the soonest - Pauls Photo is closed on Sunday and then my day job ruins the party.
Is ‘won’t’ a real word? Or should have I used ‘willn’t’?…..
Let us know if the edge markings are in Cyrillic letters.
Film price alert! Amazon just let me know that one roll of Fuji 400 has been discounted from $18.50 to $17.
Or about what you would pay for three rolls from mpex.
