I don't shoot colour negative film very often, but my wife does. Once said this, in the process of getting used to the MZ-S, I have used several negative films, and I tried the Agfa Vista 400. It is saturated, but it is also the worst Agfa film I've ever tried, it is grainy, not sharp at all, and its lack of contrast sucks. I have also (and my wife has used it a lot in the last pair of years) used Superia, both in 100 and 400 ISO speeds. The 400 Superia is an excellent film, it yields very good colour, saturated but not unnatural, and the grain is not noticeable, even in the enlargments we've had done, although those are not big (18x24 cm., I think). It also scans very well. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Carlos Royo [EMAIL PROTECTED] Zaragoza (Aragon) - Spain ------------------------------------------------------------------ - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
