New Fuji Neopan ?

I'm hoping Acros comes back with good reciprocity, contrast and clear film base. Bought 25 rolls of 120 and 40 sheets of 4x5 in a panic when the news hit. I'd love to share the differences between the two if Fuji stays true to their word.

The film emulation on the Fuji digital cameras only makes sense to the hipsters if they know the film. I wouldn't be surprised if Fuji brings a 400 speed black and white back. Prepare for sticker shock, now that they've scared the crap out of the consumer, people will be standing in line with 100,000 ¥ bills in their hands.
 

If Frank Sinatra posts a thread on Photrio, I'm just going to want to know how he came back from the dead!
 
Or potentially, "I did it my way...."

I hope Acros-II 120 will be on the shelves when I'm over there in March. It would be nice to compare the old with the new...

I imagine it will be. I've been on the lookout, both online and in shops since I returned to Japan a couple weeks ago. In all likelihood though, it will be reported as soon as it appears on shelves.

I'm interested in comparing the two myself, but since I bought nearly 300 rolls when Acros was discontinued, I have quite a bit of stock to go through before I can justify buying any more. The good thing though is that I don't have to worry about running out of film anytime soon!
 
It's almost as if Fuji made all the Acros I they could, created a panic to liquidate the stocks, and now will, offer Acros II, probably in limited quantities at a substantial price increase.

I suppose this is why Fuji is alive and well.
 

Yea, I bought a hundred rolls of 120 before it was discontinued... I won't buy much of the new stuff...just a "few" boxes..
