I haven't used the Velvia yet, I'm saving it for a trip to Centralia, PA (its a town that's been on fire for over 30 years, now). I'll have to add in a roll of Kodak 100VS into my next order and see how it turns out. > game. In the print film realm, the king was Agfa Ultra 50 - alas is Most of all, I'd love to find a print film in 4x5, as I know my shutters are all off and I'm too lazy to sit down and test them all to find out just by how much. :) Oh well, evidently I'll have to test or just deal without. > lighting but not both well.

I've been shooting Reala 100 in 120 now for a few rolls, and have been quite happy with the results so far, but for the most part, the colours seem to be as I remembered them, not the excessively vivid colour I (not-so) secretly wish to have. I'm happy, but I want more.. always more! Come to think of it, is Reala available in 4x5..(checking)..no, it is not. -- http://www.infotainment.org "The destructive character is cheerful." - Walter Benjamin - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
