VALHALLA, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 3, 2005--Fuji Photo Film U.S.A., Inc. today announced "Fujifilm Halloween Pandamonium," a national sweepstakes campaign being launched in conjunction with popular family events hosted by zoos across the country where Fujifilm will have a key presence this Halloween season.

Fujifilm Halloween Pandamonium events will take place at the following zoos: the Bronx and Central Park Zoos in New York City; Brookfield Zoo in Chicago; Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden; Detroit Zoological Park; Denver Zoological Gardens; Los Angeles Zoo and Botanical Gardens; Memphis Zoo; Smithsonian's National Zoo in Washington, D.C.; Oregon Zoo in Portland; and the San Francisco Zoological Gardens.

The Fujifilm Halloween Pandamonium sweepstakes gives families nationwide the opportunity to win a trip to the Smithsonian's National Zoo in Washington, D.C., where they can be among the first to get the chance to meet the giant panda cub born there in July. A Fujifilm donation helped make it possible to bring the cub's parents, Mei Xiang and Tian Tian, to the U.S. in 2000, on loan from China. Last July, Mei Xiang gave birth to a male cub, and next year the panda family will take up residence in the new Fujifilm Giant Panda Habitat.

"Our support of the giant panda program exemplifies Fujifilm's commitment to conservation, a commitment shared by the nation's zoos, which have long stressed the importance of educating the public about conservation and its impact on people and the natural world," said Camilla Jenkins, Vice President, Corporate Communications, Fuji Photo Film, U.S.A. "The new panda cub has gotten tremendous attention since his birth, and Halloween celebrations at zoos have grown enormously in popularity in recent years. Thanks to this winning combination, we look forward to reaching several hundred thousand people very directly with an important message about conservation -- and give citizens from across the U.S. the chance to enjoy a wonderful trip to the nation's zoo."

Fujifilm Halloween Pandamonium launches nationwide on October 3, 2005, at www.fujifilm.com/zoo, and gains visibility at Halloween events scheduled at 11 zoos, including some of the nation's largest. All participating zoos will have an official Fujifilm Halloween Pandamonium booth on site for their Halloween celebrations, which will vary in duration from one day to several weekends. The Fujifilm booth highlights the plight of the giant panda, an endangered species with an estimated wild population of only about 1,660, all in China. Trick-or-treaters will be able to have their pictures taken with a Fujifilm panda mascot and will get cool panda trading cards full of interesting giant panda facts, as well as sweepstakes information.

The Fujifilm Halloween Pandamonium sweepstakes gives entrants the opportunity to win an all-expenses-paid trip for four to the National Zoo. The prize package includes roundtrip airfare and two nights' hotel accommodations. Winners will also receive a Fujifilm FinePix E900 digital camera. Those who are interested in more information or wish to enter the sweepstakes should visit www.fujifilm.com/zoo.
