More Trump Tariffs Coming August 1st For South Korea and Japan


Fujifilm has done an exemplary job avoiding price hikes due to tariffs by moving production lines of their most popular cameras to Japan to mitigate the burden of tariffs on this generation of cameras, but now photorumors is reporting that a 25% Trump tariff will be implemented against South Korea and Japan starting August 1st.

Fujifilm might continue doing us all a solid by eating the tariff or figuring out another creative way to not raise prices, but at this point, I would recommend you place any orders if you want to lock in the price of something before August 1st. Thankfully, Fujifilm isn’t as greedy as Sony, because they have seen sales slow dramatically due to tariffs.

Fujifilm FUJICOLOR SUPERIA X-TRA400 and FUJICOLOR PRO 400H Were Listed and Delisted Again

Fujifilm listed FUJICOLOR SUPERIA X-TRA400 and FUJICOLOR PRO 400H on their website for a few days, but it has since been removed. Some hoped it meant that these film stocks would return soon, but there are now multiple reports in Asia and domestically that this listing was made in error. One interesting difference between domestic reports and the reports in Asia is that Asian reports imply the listing was premature. In contrast, domestic reports say that the listing was made in error.

The reintroduction of film stock that has been discontinued due to difficulties procuring chemicals wouldn’t surprise me with the analog boom happening today. Fujifilm tried to replace FUJICOLOR SUPERIA X-TRA 400 with Fujifilm 400 Color Negative Film several years after its discontinuation, but FUJICOLOR SUPERIA X-TRA 400 and FUJICOLOR PRO 400H might be names that are worth reviving. You can check out the listing on the Internet Archive here and come to your own conclusion.
