Hmmm. I suspect that may be based on the type of photos you usually take. For me, slide films work better for one simple reason: my scanner picks up a lot more grain noise in dark areas. That means that the skies on all of my negative film end up looking like some sort of pointillist nightmare instead of a smooth blue gradation. Skies make up a lot of my shots, since I'm doing primarily automobile road racing. What dark areas exist in my photos I can usually smite pretty easily in PS, as needed. TTYL, DougF KG4LMZ
