I agree with Ted. Any film works, and should be chosen based upon your vision. Personally, I shoot almost exclusively Fiji Velvia. For my LF images, I prefer Tango drum scans, but for 35mm, I'll use my desktop scanner.

I shoot almost exclusively Velvia 50 and Fuji NPS160S when I need extra latitude. Occasionally I'll break out a sheet or two of Acros 100, if the subject warrants a mono treatment. NPS is a very underrated emulsion for landscape use, imo.
Easiest to scan film I have ever used is Kodak E200, unfortunately not available in 4x5. With 4x5 films, I mostly only use Kodak E100VS and Fuji Astia 100F. I prefer Astia 100F for people shots, though I have used E100VS for some fashion and lifestyle work.
