Where to buy?
« on: February 08, 2013, 05:19:34 PM »
Anyone know a place other than ebay to pick up a Fuji Fotorama FP-1?  I am on the hunt...

I have one - I guess that doesn't help.  :(

I know I ended up getting mine from Japan. Having said all of that the 45 instant film is so damn expensive now it is hardly worth the expense!

45 Film?  Do you mean 4x5? The Fp-1 doesn't shoot 4x5.  I thought it shoots pack film like Fuji FP3000b.  Or am I wrong?

Film is the vinyl record of photography.

Sorry, Thomas - I got all confused ::)

I had one of these up until a few months ago - same story really. I got it from Japan. IT took lovely photos, but, I wasn't using it enough, so, I sold it.

Sorry about the confusion!

There seems to constantly be on in eBay but well over priced at 700 pounds. Good luck with your search.

Though no cheaper, you have considered the Konica Instant Press? Very similar camera.

If you're not able to find one on eBay, I've heard good things about this guy. Considering Japan seems to to be the location of most of the FP-1 cameras, that should be a step in the right direction.

Best of luck!
