Where Can We Get 8x10 Fuji Acros?

[cdholden]

They just discontinued the half plate Acros which I was using in my 5x7 camera. No other real use for half plate filmholders now...

Au contraire!

At Japan Exposures it is ¥13,260 which I quackulate to be around $156 US or, adding 25%, $195 US for 25 sheets + shipping. This is 2.6 TIMES what B&H charge for Ilford FP4+ or Delta!!! WTH!?!?

I guess there's not enough demand for import here?

Dirk is there to run a business and he does so by including a premium on the products he can get locally and ship internationally.

Nothing against his business, but I would find someone in Japan that could perhaps look around for a cheap price at one of the hundreds of film dealers and perhaps find you a score.

I WOULD help you, but at the moment I an unemployed here in Japan. I should be working on a U.S. bases here shortly. With this job, I would be able to order from Yodabashi and ship to the US via USPS Priority. But you'll have to wait until I get a job. So please keep your fingers crossed for me

Richard,

Macodirect in Germany has 20 sheet boxes listed:

http://www.macodirect.de/fuji-acros-...f1244436520128

The 19% VAT is only for EU, so you pay 141,3 € .
They ship to Canada with DHL (2KG Package ~ 21,50 € shipping cost).


A bit more expensive than the 25 sheets from Japan,
maybe the actual shipping costs from Japan makes a difference?

I am crossing my fingers for you and will also try posting to see if anyone would be willing to do this locally for me. Thank you.

Not saying there is no half plate film, but it is all available in 5x7 too. Acros was never made in 5x7, only half plate... will order some half plate fp4 in the ULF order...
