fw1 Posted March 1, 2002 Share Posted March 1, 2002 According to Fuji in the UK, Astia is no longer available in Quickload. Is this <i>wonderful<i> slide film being phased out by Fuji? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpshiker Posted March 1, 2002 Share Posted March 1, 2002 Hi Finnegan, <p> What is worse, all Quickload films are no longer listed at Fujifilm Switzerland! I think I should buy another deep freezer and fill it up! <p> Kind regards, <p> Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glenn_kroeger Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 Paul: <p> Have you verified this with Fujifilm in Switzerland? <p> Glenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpshiker Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 Hi Glenn, <p> Yes, I checked with them and they actually told me that I can still order Provia F and Velvia in QuickLoad on a minimum order of 30 boxes, delay up to two or three months :-( (Astia has never been imported in QuickLoad here). <p> Where have I stored the old silly holders? ...I'm going to hate that digital trend!

steve_gangi2 Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 I don't know about it being discontinued, but you an probably still get it mail order from places like Freestyle or B and H. They can afford to order 30 boxes at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fw1 Posted March 3, 2002 Author Share Posted March 3, 2002 This is worse than I had thought...if Astia doesn't sell, then I can understand if it is withdrawn (even if in my opinion it is one of the best slide films around), but it looks as if Quickload in general is being scaled back - I certainly hope that this is not the case.
