Rob, Superia 400 may be known for its wide palette of greens, but it
certainly doesn't give a green cast. Caucasian skin tones are a bit
on the pink side, but nevertheless they're not "atrocious". Overall
it's a well balanced, fine grain emulsion.
Now, one thing about negative films that I learned the hard way is
to burn at least a dozen meters before judging it. And this is
besides using the same lab, preferably a pro one, etc.
