Yes
i found lots of O.O.D stuff on ebay but where can i get this at reasonable price in-date
 
AFAIK it has mostly been discontinued, boots may have some short dated stuff, my local asda had a few rolls but they werent cheap
 
i have found this company online.i have phoned them and they assure me that there fuji APS film has a minimum of 12 months in-date.prices are £69.99 + £7.71 delivery for pack of 20 x 24 exp which is not great but not so bad too

anyone else dealt with them
I bought my scanner from b4udirect, got it fairly quickly but the customer service was lacking, never replied to emails asking for tracking details until it had already arrived :shrug:
 
When I'm in France, I notice that all the local supermarkets still have APS film on the shelves, Kodak 200 or 400 ASA if I remember correctly. SO it must still be being produced on a regular basis for that market.
 
There was another thread about this recently at http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=346639&highlight=APS

I'm sure I read that it's possible to reload APS cartridges with 16mm or split 35mm film, but it looked like a real pain to do. I can't remember any more about this, but a lot of things are possible, if not really practical. Perhaps someone else can help?

Your thinking of 110 film which is essentially 16mm film. I recently linked to a guide to splitting 35mm and reloading the 110 cartridge.

im glad your scanner arrived howver after being informed that there are several website frorums warning about this company i decided not to purchase from them and should warn anyone that is thinking of buying from them to do a google search on this company before considering a purchasefrom them.it seems that they let a lot of people down

so im still looking :(
