I think the only B&W Fuji films I have seen in the fridge at the dealers is 120 Neopan. In this part of the country, AGFA pretty well owns the B&W market, followed by Kodak. Halifax has an Art College that dates back to the 1700's and the students tend to use AGFA because it is cheaper. There is also a vocational school in town that teaches photography and they too seem to use a lot of AGFA products, Fuji just may not market their B&W films around here because AGFA has the price so depressed. I haven't done a comparison of AGFA B&W to Fujis B&W, but their RSX 100 in Bulk is half the price of the Fuji and Kodak films in bulk. I checked Fuji's Canadian web site and Acros is available in 120 format only. That might explain why I have never seen it. Regards, Robert At 08:40 PM 2/15/2002 -0700, Greg J.
