In an article on ephotozine.com today Gabriel Da Costa, product manager for professional film, was quoted as saying, “Due to decreasing demand globally we have to announce the withdrawal of some formats of Velvia 100F and Velvia 50. It is an unfortunate consequence of digital capture, that some of the slower selling silver-halide lines will drop off the radar. Fujifilm will continue to manufacture a wide range of film and the increasing support for our Choose Film group illustrates there is still a passion for film photography across the world.”
Well at least he committed to keep supporting film users albeit with a smaller stable of products. Here's the link if you want to read the whole article.
Fujifilm Fujichrome Velvia 100F 35mm, 120, 4x5 and 50 4x5, 8x10 Discontinued
