Ken Rockwell has a nice shot of the Fuji booths on his site. He reports that the huge display prints were all done from 8x10, including one from 4 stitched 8x10! (About a year ago Ken became a film true believer and has been pushing film use and film cameras on his site.)

You have to give it to Ken, there just aren't many sites out there that match his level of enthusiasm. Which sometimes is all that matters.

Thanks for the link.

The prints at the fuji booth were exceptionally well done compared to most of the over-enlarged stuff found elsewhere at PMA! It was the only booth that my companion and I stopped to look at photographs instead of at equipment. The photographer is Rodney Lough Jr.

So Fuji announces a new GF 6x7/6x6 film camera,
and then pulls the plug on Neopan 400 in 120 roll format?
Their management team seems about as wise :mad: as Kodak's!

That's exactly what I want to say! :mad: :mad:
If I am going to buy a Fuji 670, NEOPAN 400 will be my main film to shoot with. I really don't understand. Maybe Fuji670 should fall in the category of Nikon F6.

The B&W availability in 220 is also annoying. Once my supply of 320TXP runs out, it's back to 120 only - a minor inconvenience, but an inconvenience nonetheless.

Unimpressed. $2400 for a fifty year old camera design? I bet it takes pretty pictures, but I could buy a bunch of Agfa Isolettes and film for that kinda scratch.

But I don't need to - I've already got one, fixed up by Certo6 and loaded with HP5+. It's in my jacket pocket right now...
