Thanks for the offer, Jack, but I'm in Israel, so ordering film from US is quite cumbersome... :-)

I just checked the B&H site and it lists for $5.79US compared to $4.95US for Reala. I buy it locally for about a $2.00 a roll premium. It is 800 speed, but I usually rate it at 500. There is very little grain for a high speed film. I believe it is a four layer film like Reala (I don't think NGH II is). Can you order from Calumet? They sell five packs for $31.99US ($6.40 a roll).

(BTW, is that ISO 800 or 400 ?) This film is quite expensive here in Israel, though the NPH (400) can be purchased at very affordable price in pro shops.

Before that I used NPH, also a good choice. When there is enough light, I love Reala. But shooting a lot indoors, high speed is a must. On trips, I always carry both, NPZ and Reala. Good luck Herb.

I'd like to solicit this group's recommendations for the "best" out-of-the-box color negative film to use with a Polaroid SprintScan 4000 and PolaColor SprintScan or Vuescan. I have read good things about Kodak Supra 400 and Fujicolor NPS 160, and the purpose is mostly hand-held travel pictures under various lighting conditions. Many thanks in advance, Herb
