Fuji Fortia SP

[kraker]

This may be old news, although a search didn't result in any recent postings about the subject.

Fuji Fortia SP, the "limited run", "only in Japan" reversal film with even more saturation than Velvia, is available once more.

I'm pretty sure it wasn't available last time I checked megaperls (which may have been anything from a few months to half a year ago), but when I checked yesterday, I noticed it was in stock again. I immediately order some... I'm very curious to give this "funky" film a try.

Just thought I'd let you all know.

I noticed it's back in stock too - I got a five pack last year, and havent found a use for all of it yet. Shot one roll at a wedding, one around home, and one in Alaska.
Probably time to get some more just in case, I do love the colours.

I've just acquired my first pack of Fortia SP, and I'd be grateful for any feedback or suggestions on experience with reciprocity failure for expsures between 30 sec and 2 min.

I was already aware of Fortia SP, but can anyone shed a little light on what Fujichrome Trebi (available in "100c" and 400) is, what makes it distinctive (the way Fortia SP is engineered for exaggerated reds and cyans), and how it looks based on an APUG's personal experience? Evidently, Trebi 100c is still in production, while it appears Trebi 400 is not.

And while we're on the topic of very uncommon Fuji films still in production (and if anyone here has experience using them) what is Fujicolor Natura NP 1600 like? I guess I'm being inquisitive because there's so little information about them and why there's a market for them at all, even if highly regional in nature.

Is it true it's a Velvia batch that went wrong?
Has anybody cross processed this?

If you want to grab some now would be the the time. 2 propacks of 120 left on megaperls, 5 packs of 35mm, last I checked.

Anyone know if they're making another run anytime soon? It's great for the fall colours as well.

I ordered two propacks of 120 in June, still have one in the freezer. I don't think they are going to make another run very soon. Keep checking the megaperls site.

Whuuuut!!

It was quite a colourful wedding (forgive the awful slide scans)
