In several weeks I’m off to Redwood country where browns and greens predominate. However, I’m hoping to capture what little autumn color there is if my timing is right – the occasional red-oranges and yellows.
This and other forums contain a few threads comparing Velvia to Kodak’s E100VS for recording the softer shades of yellow autumn foliage. But, complaints about E100VS include inconsistent quality, reds that coalesce and lack definition.
This, plus my lack of experience (and time to gain any before my imminent trip) with Kodak’s products makes me lean toward the familiar Velvia.
I will take along a warm polarizer but doubt that will do much to make the soft yellows stand out. Any suggestions on maximizing Velvia (or other Fujichrome?) yellows?
