Well, some of this doesn't make sense.  As B&H says on their site, Agfa,
Fuji, and Ilford film are *all* made outside of the US.  So when I look at
Fuji film and see Sensia 100 offered at a USA price and an Imported price I
get confused.  The explanation on the webiste talks about handling & storage
standards.  To be honest, I buy most of my film locally from Adorama since
they have a visible refrigeration unit (even if it isn't used for all their
film).  Maybe that means nothing (e.g., refrigeration) or maybe that just
means that some of their expired (or soon to be expired) film might be
better?

I have not seen this discussed before but I am sure that it has been
covered.

I was looking through the B&H site at the various types of Kodak color slide
film available.
There are three types for each category .. USAW, USA, Imported.

Question 1. What is USAW?
Question 2. Does it "really" make a difference as long as the expiration
date is OK?

Some of the price differentials are more than double like $10.25 vs. 4.49.
What gives??
