Sad Times.   Lets get a petition together to either get them to gft as much tech as they can to impossible and/or do a last run at cost price.

I think that petition is to stop fuji discontinuing it... which given yesterdays announcement appears unlikely at this stage.

Maybe we should arrange an online 2 minute silence?

Maybe someone could get them to do a run if enough people pre-order the film and pay ahead of time?
That would definitely let them avoid the inevitable losses.

Why did they even bother renaming themselves from Fuji Photo to Fujifilm!
