If you check on B&H, Adorama, they both show "Discontinued" on the 4x5" Velvia 50 films (10-sheet pack)
I also called Hunts Photo Video and the lady told me the same thing too.

I then called Fuji and they told me that the 10-sheet pack is discontinued but may have 20-sheet pack in September.... have any of you heard about such things?

If that's the case, where do you get Velvia 50 sheet films nowadays?
