New Velvia samples in UK

[roteague]

Found this posted over at choose-film.com

"We now have stocks of the new Velvia 50 emulsion in the UK.

After some initial testing by our own technical department we will be sending a limited amount of samples out to our authorised UK dealers, and to only those who enquire with us. Parallel product stockists will not be supported with this sample film.

If you require a sample roll to test please enquire through your normal UK Fuji Pro Film stockist. Please do not contact us directly through choose-film.com.

This new Velvia 50 sample film is only available to UK residents. Members of choose-film.com residing in other countries need to contact their relevant Fujifilm head office."

This is exciting....

Ooooooooooh. Fun. I still have some rolls of the old stuff. When I can get my hands on the new stuff I may have to do some slide shooting.

Thanks for the heads-up Robert,

Will contact them first thing tomorrow....

I still have a full freezer of the original RVP50, so I suppose my current interest is largely academic

Pity the datasheet doesn't refer to its availability in 5x7 format, only the usual boring squareish alternatives…
