Assuming of course, that Fuji is actually doing manufacturing runs right now for film.
Also, not sure if Fuji is know for doing custom orders like Ilford/Harman or Foma. Fuji has other priorities and don't think they find it profitable.
According to my information, they were the real maker of Konica films(...)
In my personal opinion, the only company in the world that relied on its scientists and researchers to produce color film from scratch after Agfa and Kodak is Ilford (in the period when it was making color film),
Are you claiming Ferrania was using Agfa formulas to produce Solaris, or that Agfa was actually manufacturing it for them? To be honest, I don’t find either credible. Ferrania Solaris did not look like an Agfa C41 film.
I thought K-Mart Focal film was manufactured by 3M/Ferrania, but that may have been just the slide film.
I don't know what this Fugufilm is, but it doesn't look like it's ready for the market yet.
Fuji used to....the AgfaPhoto Vista Plus 200 which was around until about five years ago was Fuji 200 in disguise....

It is real.I just love that expression. Is it real, or a Photrio thing?

I bought one roll of K-Mart slide film in the 1970s. It was not to my liking. Perhaps that is why my responses to the Ferrania project was less than enthusiastic, Some of the young film enthusiasts today might go for it though. If what you bought was rebranded Fuji, I can see how you may have had a different experience.In the 60s and 70s it was GAF, then when GAF closed their photo line was 3M, by the late 90s the few rolls I saw seemed to be Fuji. I shot 3M slide and negative film as my shoot around film, pretty neutral, grain was good. Good all around snap shot film.

In the 70s Kmart sold GAF, well until 1977 when GAF left the market. GAF used the Ansco process which was closer to E4 than E6, if you look at older Nat Geo from the 50s and 60s almost of the color work at time was Anscochrome. I shot a few rolls of GAF 500, processed by GAF, a couple of rolls I processed myself, all are fading. My GAF 200 speed film seems to be holding up better. On the other hand Kodachrome and Ektachrom from the same period look as good as the day I shot them, and that includes E 4 Ektachrome.
It is real.
IIRC, I got it from some of Simon Galley's posts, so it would be real and British.
Here is an example - see the 5th paragraph: https://www.photrio.com/forum/threa...d-re-price-increases.71085/page-6#post-997188
Do you represent that company in one way or another, are you its spokesperson?
Many behaviors that indicate that it is an arrogant company.
- (The Egyptian Analog Society) wants to make a group purchase, and we decided to buy 5,000 rolls of all categories,, and we want to get a good discount,,,
We elected someone to represent us, and that person went to speak to the official representative of Fuji in Egypt and applied for the sales department.
- The representative of Fuji in Egypt addressed Fuji (the regional branch in Dubai), and the regional branch, in turn, addressed the parent company in Japan.
We have been waiting for a response from Japan for nearly five weeks, and in the end the response came:
They refused to give us any discount or special offer at all. On the contrary, they said that they would increase the prices by a percentage (I don't remember the percentage, but it was probably 10%)...
It happened less than two years ago.
You can do a poll on it..
Do you think Fuji is an arrogant and evil company?
Yes or no ..
Do that poll first and I bet you will be amazed by the poll results
And what did you do about the deal you wanted to make with Kodak,.? Did you find any alternatives?Their loss, it would have been a lot of money.
I hope you and your group bought all your film someplace else!
I want to buy an ECN2 reel and bring it to Egypt with a traveler for a fee (financial reward), but I still haven't found anyone.
