    Re: velvia

    Velvia 50 was the best to me, my goto film. Velvia 100F is decent. I like it for scenes where I want more punch than Astia or Provia but not actually use the good stuff :-) No not quite the punch but a decent film. Provia is ok I mainly would buy it when I could find short/outdated. I like Astia more for winter, and daytime, and when there is not alot of green as I think green is really bad on Astia. Astia is awesome for use when you know you will convert it to B+W in PS.

    Then we get to Velvia 100. Don't like it. Serious magenta cast. Not that it pumps red or magenta. No it always seems to have a magenta cast. Should not be called Velvia. :-)

    BTW, yes Velvia 50 seems in very short supply.
