In April 2018, Fujifilm announced it was discontinuing its much-loved Acros 100 film stock. Now, more than a year later, Fujifilm has announced that its new Neopan 100 ACROS II film, first teased in June of this year, will start shipping in Japan on November 22, 2019 in 35mm and 120 formats.
According to Fujifilm, the newly developed Neopan 100 ACROS emulsion features the company´s `Super Fine particle technology,´ which better retains highlight gradation and improves overall sharpness that `emphasizes the contour of the subject.´
Fujifilm hasn´t shared any pricing information, but as noted by Emulsive, Rakuten Japan has both the 35mm and 120 versions listed for 1,045 Japanese yen, which equates to roughly $9.50 a roll.
