Huss Posted May 18, 2023 Author Share #4  Posted May 18, 2023 My stash just showed from MidWest Photo.  Interestingly this is the Kodak Fuji 200, i.e. Kuji 200.  Wait, or is it Fojak 200? Made in the USA.  Strange as my last batch prior (current expiration) was made in Japan. I honestly have never shot with Kuji 200, so will be curious as to how different it is to Fuji 200. I'm sure I'll like it just as much.  Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members!

It's a weird thing.  It's only this shop, and it is a legit big shop in the MidWest.  So not some dodgy operation. It's also not a one-off because I have bought from them before at this price point.  It leads me to believe there is an awful lot of wiggle room in the pricing but almost all dealers ignore that. MidWest sold out in a couple of hours from after they received it. Fojak/Kuji on the left, Fuji on the right Welcome, dear visitor!

Anbaric Posted July 6, 2023 Share #13 Â Posted July 6, 2023 The Fujifilm 200 branding has been used both for US-made film (presumably Kodak Gold) and for recent Japan-made film (presumably C200). The Fujifilm 400 branding has been used for US-made film (presumably Kodak Ultramax). I don't know if it has also been used for Japan-made film, but I wouldn't be terribly surprised if Superia turned up in this guise. It may be that Fuji now sees consumer film as a generic 'white box' product (appropriately enough, the new boxes are indeed white) that can be sourced from anywhere where there is production capacity, and the unique properties of their in-house film will no longer be part of the marketing.
