Fujifilm down under still currently lists a couple of C41and BW emulsions and the pro transparency films in 35mm. However the latter has become astronomically expensive (in fact triple!) BHPhoto prices for no good reason. With standard processing they can cost you up to $1.45 a frame! It's enough to drive you to digital...oh wait......
