Velvia 50 @ 50 or 80. Great for saturated colors, with a strong bias toward blues and greens. If it was cold, or even cool stored, you should be fine.

APX 25: I wish I kept that last case of 120 rolls instead of chasing a hefty profit. Expose it @ ISO 12 and have fun trying to find the grain. Great for enlargements, lots of detail assuming you focus correctly with a sharp lens (modern plasmat is fine).

I use Fuji NPL and it is a tungsten balanced color negative film. I use hot lights for still life's and this film works very well.
When I knew that Fuji was not going to make this film anymore I bought up as much as I could find and it now rest safely in my freezer. When that is gone, I will just filter daylight color neg.

Been a long time since I shot Tech Pan. Never shot 120, only 35mm. I could make absolutely grain-less and sharp 16X20 enlargements from them.
