There is no question that most negative color films are lower contrast
and have a wider exposure range than their equivalent speed in slide
film. If your scanner/scanner software has good ability to translate
the dye masks in negative films, you will get better results overall
with negative f
You might try Fuji Reala if a 100 speed film is fast enough. It is one of
the few low-contrast negative films that has high color saturation.

I'm fond of Supra 400 and use it a lot.
Recently I've also been shooting Provia 100F when
there is enough light. These films are apples
and oranges but Supra 400 is real 'chunky' compared to the
Provia. It is interesting to do a max zoom on a 4000 ppi file from
a 35 mm frame to see what the pixels
