The Acros costs twice as much. There's gotta be some difference. AP
magazine seems to feel that Acros developed in FX50 is the best
combination on earth. It gives an increase in speed, and retains all of
the good qualities of Acros.

Is there any real differences between Fuji Acros and SS?

I've mainly been shooting Neopan 1600 and 400 with a little Acros 100
thrown
in.  I decided it was time to experiment more with the 100 speed now
that
I'm more comfortable with the other two.  So I placed an order at B&H.
I've
had good luck with import film in the past, so decided to go for the
import
100 speed.  I didn't pay that close attention when ordering.  When my
film
shows up, the 100 speed is in a different box and says SS.  Yes, that's
exactly what I ordered.  :)

I can't tell the difference between the USA and imported 400 and 1600
speed
boxes.  Does anybody know if this is a different kind of film, or just
the
name is different outside the US?
