Moritz Moessinger Posted April 30, 2021 Posted April 30, 2021 This sounds interesting. Tragic how hard it is to find fuji stock these days. What price am I looking at per roll?
Premium Member Marcel Zyskind Posted April 30, 2021 Premium Member Posted April 30, 2021 Not trying to throw a spanner in the works, but from what I understand Cinelab in London does not develop Fuji stock any more... Which sucks as I have 15x rolls of s16mm 250D in my fridge!
Site Sponsor Rick Anderson Posted April 30, 2021 Author Site Sponsor Posted April 30, 2021 Hello Moritz, 125.00 for the 16mm and 175.00 for the 35mm plus shipping. Best, rick

Which sucks as I have 15x rolls of s16mm 250D in my fridge! Actually, it's becoming a real problem. I've had nothing but issues getting the remjet to come off of Fuji stock. Sometimes it comes off ok in the machine other times it leaves speckles on the film after processing. I sold ALL of my Fuji stock as a consequence. However, 64D is such a unique/unusual stock that I've been collecting again in order to shoot a short with it and just "risk it". 1
James Compton Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 The processing issue may be lab dependant. 2 weeks ago, I processed FUJI 160T VIVID 35mm at Kodak Lab Atlanta with no issues. 1

You also may not see the speckles on 35mm as much. They are very faint on 16mm.
Paul-Anthony Posted May 2, 2021 Posted May 2, 2021 Hello. I'm gonna add my experience to this, here in France, no more Fuji can be processed since two years now. Beware when you shoot tests on the first 100ft of a 400ft roll, the remjet in that part of the roll will sometimes not be a problem, but the problem occurs later on the roll, the closer you get to the core and the highest chance you will have remjet problems. We have done tones of tests in our lab here since we had feature films productions buying big stocks of Fuji for cheap. Best result was by pushing temperature in the baths at one point that the gelatin of the film became very fragile. In that case, all the remjet went off. But that is playing with fire when you are handling the footage of a proper production, so please no Fuji, I know that's sad, but its like that ... PA
Heikki Repo Posted May 2, 2021 Posted May 2, 2021 It's a very interesting issue. I guess it is related to the age of film? Or storage? I bought an assortment of 16mm Fuji stock when they ceased production. I have stored the film in freezer since then and everything has turned out just fine. Those films have been processed by Video & Film Solutions in 2014, Andec, one Italian lab and most recently - just last Autumn - by Color by DeJonghe. Granted, hearing of these issues makes me want to try to use them ASAP and in less critical projects. Fortunately I only have 400ft of 64D and 400ft of 400T left - and one random can of F-250T (in addition to a can of Agfa XT 125, but those last two mentioned are real vintage stocks, not to be used for anything even remotely critical!)

Exactly, its always at the tail of the film. I actually made a video all about this that I will be publishing soon. My film had been frozen from day one so I know it was not the film going bad or something like that.

Ya may not notice the issue. It took me a while of watching the same clip over and over again to see it. Wasn't even visible on the print I made.

I shoot lots of old stock and honestly, I’ve had mixed results. Most of the time if it’s been stored well, it comes out good enough. If it’s not been stored well, it’s generally trash.
