Posted this morning on The Phoblographer.  While 24-exposure rolls of Superia and Fujicolor have been discontinued, Fujifilm is offering 36-exposure rolls of ISO 200, 400, and 800 emulsions in new packaging. Not sure how much this affects Fuji's seeming goal of exiting non-Instax film altogether, but if it buys us a few more years, all the better.

I've noticed that there are still some Superia 24-exp 4-packs on Amazon for around $3.00 per roll, if anyone's looking to stock up.

I'm still working my way through the 20 rolls of Superia 200 24exp I grabbed for $1/roll when Walmart closed it out a few years ago. One presumes they wouldn't go to the trouble of new packaging if discontinuation was imminent.
Any man who can see what he wants to get on film will usually find some way to get it;
and a man who thinks his equipment is going to see for him is not going to get much of anything.

Ilford is refreshing its packaging too, I believe.

I've just bought some Acros as i love that film.  Only really used to use it for low light pinholes which i havent taken in ages... but i love the film.
