the"bright sun 100" film is the Gold 100 emulsion. Not the same as
Royal Gold/Supra 100, which were ostensibly replaced by Royal Supra
200.
Having shot all three films, the RS200 may be a technically better
film in terms of resolution, but it renders colors differently, and
has quite a bit more co

That's what I'm feeling, as a newbie photographer. Started photographing
a bit more seriously ab
I think the reason is in great part because of the huge prevalence of
slow-speed zoom lenses that practically required faster film. Had Kodak
wanted to improve slower speed emulsions they could have. The money,
however, was elsewhere.

The great photographers of the past who haven't had a chance to use
contemporary emulsions are dead. They won't miss the new emulsions.

Royal Gold 25 was another pretty nice Kodak emulsion, too.
Some claimed it was the consumer version of the Pro Ektar 25.
It's been discontinued for around five years, though.
Guess what I'm planning to put in my MZ-S for our field trip :-)
