Fuji Bromide Rembrandt V

Anybody use this stuff? I admit to being a little starstruck with fuji, and I've read that bromide papers are slow but nice.

90 bucks Canadian a box of 100 of 8x10 is no joke for paper though.

where did you find it?

Obtainable at Megaperls, www.unicircuits.com in Japan. Good guy in my book.

Gee, that's cheaper than what I pay here in Japan (8x10" 50sheet box for 6,000 yen or 60USD now). It was 5,000 yen last year, but from this month there's a price increase of 10-20% on paper and film. Over here there's no 100 sheet box for this paper in this size for some reason.

Anyway, I have been using the G2 version of it. It's a grade #2 paper without filters, but works as VC/MC with filters, and I like it. I think I have posted a few comments before, but it has a character somewhere between Ilford MG FB and Agfa MC FB. The paper is a creamy white and is rich in black, and the paper coating is very smooth and silky.

I used this paper a couple of years back ,, nice paper but getting it into Toronto was extremely expensive.. I would use it if Fuji brought it into NA.
