Profile notes
Fujifilm Superia 800 occupied the high-speed tier of the Superia consumer film family, targeting photographers who needed to shoot in low-light conditions without flash or to freeze fast motion. The film used Fujifilm's 4th color layer technology adapted for ISO 800 sensitivity, resulting in more pronounced grain than its slower Superia siblings but with good color accuracy and reasonable sharpness for a high-speed consumer emulsion. Superia 800 was notably popular for indoor events, sports, and concert photography. It was discontinued in most markets as Fujifilm contracted its consumer film production, though exact dates vary by region. The film has been replaced in the market by Fujifilm's disposable camera emulsions at ISO 800 for general consumers.
