p.3 #1Film price ALERT!
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.

Fujifilm 400 is not Superia X-tra. Superia X-tra says 'Superia X-tra' on the box and film cassette.
Lots of online sellers are conflating the two.

When you click on that link, it just shows Fujifilm 400, no mention of Superia anywhere.

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!

Yes, the choice of venue was suspicious but unanimous, so I decided to go along with the plan.
