FWIW, I've been shooting Velvia for several years now and like the results I
get when shot straight on @ 50. I've also shot it pushed @ 100, liked that
also. When I think I need a little more speed lately I've been shooting
Provia F @100 and pushed to 200. I know some people rerate Velvia,
generally less than 50, but I see no need to do so. Hope this helps
