The Legacy Pro - Fuji Film Connection

Posted by & filed under All About Gear.

With the recent release of the Legacy Pro line of film at Freestyle Photo, there has been a lot of people asking on web forums across the Internet if it could be rebranded Fuji Neopan, and Fuji Acros.

After buying 100 feet of Legacy Pro 400 and spooling it all into 35mm canisters for use, there was something peculiar about the way leftover spool looked.

I can't quite seem to put my thumb on it, but I just get this strong gut feeling that Legacy Pro 400 may just be manufactured by Fuji Film.

;)

And yes, Legacy Pro 100 contains the same Fuji Film reels. FYI.

    What I can say about Legacy Pro 400:

    It doesn't curl in a way that makes me want to put my fist through the wall.

    Can you please tell me how many exposures you get out of 100 ft?, i.e., 10 rolls of 36 exp?
    Thank you.

    I got 20 rolls of 36 exposures from my last 100 foot roll.

    Bulk loaded 100 feet of Legacy Pro 100 last night. Got another twenty rolls out of it, plus an additional roll of thirty exposures.

    I have pretty much completely settled on Legacy Pro/Neopan 400, now. In my experience, the contrast on this film is really responsive to developer dilution when using Rodinal. I'll use up my remaining TX/Arista Premium and APX 400 and probably shoot just Legacy Pro for a while.

    Now I just need to find me a slow film that I like.

    Yes please. It usually takes me ~100 feet to decide if I like a film, but I have decided that I DIDN'T like a film in just one roll.
