Provia 100F vs. Astia 100
Having been a Kodak user for many years, I'm not very familiar with Fuji transparency films. However, I've been trying some different transparency films just to see what's out there. How do Provia 100F and Astia 100 compare in terms of sharpness, saturation, and grain? Paul Stenquist
RE: Provia 100F vs. Astia 100
Astia is muted and coldish, Provia is just slightly saturated and warmish. Grain and sharpness on Provia is streets ahead. Lattitude of Provia is much better too IMO. Astia is said to be the same emulsion as Sensia, but is slightly better IMO - possibly because of better storage and controls. -Original Message- From: Paul Stenquist [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 04 December 2002 18:25 To: Pentax Discuss Subject: Provia 100F vs. Astia 100 Having been a Kodak user for many years, I'm not very familiar with Fuji transparency films.

How do Provia 100F and Astia 100 compare I haven't used these, but have run a modest amount of the Provia 400F through my 6x7 and like it. Good color, fine grain and a couple extra stops of aperture/shutterspeed. I would say the Provia 100 would also be nice, from what I've heard of it. I tend towards the E100vs for 100asa film, though.

I've used a few rolls of Agfa RSX II 50 100. Love it. The secret is in the proc - Original Message - From: Bill D.

Ill get it right yet. I've used a few rolls of Agfa RSX II 50 100. Love it. The secret is in the processing Jeff. PS: sorry for the cross posting.
