APUG Appeal - Please send a 'Thank you!' to Fuji

[jd callow]

Which fuji email account are all of you using? It might be helpful if you posted.

[Peter Williams]

I used the contact form on the Fuji USA website:

I sent a message to Fuji as well.

Boy, what a screw up by Kodak. I JUST bought 540,000 feet of 35mm b&w motion picture dupe neg, finegrain release print stock and sound recording stock from them for the archive lab I supervise.

I guess $100K worth of purchases are not important to that CEO.

Ok ORWO and FUJI, looks you are THE REAL DEAL.

I opted to send my thanks via snail mail. For B&W I'll continue to use Ilford, but all my color stuff will be Fuji from now on. I'll use up the yellow boxes in my fridge, but they certainly won't be replaced with the same color.

I used the one Frank posted at the start of the thread, because that's the one which said they would forward all emails to Fuji Japan.

You are right of course, Art. It never hurts to express appreciation. Since I buy 95% of my film from Fuji, I have a very good reason for expressing appreciation.

Exactly and since I buy 0% of Fuji films, I have better things to do with my precious time.
I consider the Fuji move a positive thing for people using their products, but thank them for what?
I buy 100% of my products from Ilford for years, long live ILFORD HARMAN!

Cheers

I use Ilford all the time as well, but I take the view that one day I might need colour film also.

I can only speak personally - I use Ilford films aswell - different films for different kinds of images - what I'm thanking Fuji for is taking a stand at this time and making a statement in support of trad. B&W photography. I've been saying what they say in the press release (the bit before Frank's quote on other thread) for so long til I'm blue in the face to all the digi people I know. It's good to see a major maunfacturer come out and say the same thing.

Pity Kodak didn't have this courage, but has satisfied the concerns of its shareholders instead.

Best wishes

I shoot colour very rarely, but when I do, Portra 160 NC is my choice, I dislike the highly saturated colours of FUJI, a matter of taste of course.

Cheers!
