Hey Ray,

Not anymore. I called and was told that most likely they will not be
able to obtain more. If that changes, they will post an update on their
website.

I'm going to e-mail Adorama as they're probably closed now, but I
expect I'll hear the same from them. I believe they are now probably
substituting the most reasonable product that they have available.

I don't plan on sending the 2 rolls back to them. Their cost was $1.69
each, of course shipping was about $8. I'd like to see some of these
outfits learn how to use USPS first class. Especially for small, or
lightweight items. I shipped 5 rolls of Supra to a couple guys on this
list and it only cost me $1.75.

If I can't get hold of a reasonable replacement, I will give this film
a workout and see how it looks. I still have some Fuji Super HQ200, but
was not overly pleased by the varying color responses and weak red
response.

Happy (and safe) New Year to all,
Alan
