I do know that they are busy filling the supply chain with a new Ultra consumer film. Perhaps their coating plants are busy right now. You might try Fuji Neopan 400 as an alternative. :) Don dorysrsus@mindspring.com -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+dorysrus=mindspring.com@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+dorysrus=mindspring.com@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Feli di Giorgio Sent: Thursday, July 15, 2004 11:02 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: RE: [Leica] Gray film Well, here's the scoop on the grey film from the photo.net site: Looks like gray (imported) TX went to the great darkroom in the sky. Maybe it has to do with Kodak consolidating the manufacture of BW stocks in the new factory they set up last year or the discount stuff was simply cutting too deep in to Kodak's profits http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=&A=ShowProduct&Q=&sku= 29170&NI=162DB059F7 That may leave us with USAW (USAW - Film manufactured in the USA for Worldwide distribution.) but it is back ordered. About a week ago I picked up 100 rolls of gray TX from Adorama. Guess that may have been from the last batch they had in stock, because they are out except for 24 exp. rolls. Right now the best deal is for 36 exp TX is the double pack, which comes to $3.24 per roll. Rats.
