Re: Longeviry of films - was Elitechrome slide processing

Hi,

How do you find the Velvia? I have heard much mention of it and have heard 
many different reactions. Occasional ones saying that it's only good for 
taking photos of people. 

I tried Provia 400 and wasn't overly impressed with it. It was only a very 
marginal improvement as far as grain goes, over Sensia 400, and was about 
as sharp as a tennis ball. At the moment, my favourite is Sensia 100, and 
if the light conditions are really poor enough to eliminate the possibility 
of using a 100, i use Sensia 200. The grain of the Sensia 200 may not be 
quite as nice as that of the Kodak, but I don't like blue white's either. I 
prefer the grain.

Has anyone had any experience with Provia 100F, with a comparison to the 
Sensia 100? (of course the Provia is probably better)

Regards
Michael

What is the point of having quotes at the end of your .sig?
