Right, so I've gone through 3 rolls of Velvia 50 so far and can say that the results are good... though I must say that the colours are a little 'rich' for my liking. Also, I tried a roll at sunset and realised that it's too slow for dark conditions (great sky, but completely black foreground...) Perhaps Velvia 100 would work a bit better overall.
I've given Reala a go as well, and happy with the results, though I wouldn't mind sticking with slide film as it keeps the costs of buying chemicals down (ie. stick with one type of film - either neg or slide). I've still to try Provia, Astia and Sensia (in terms of slide film), and was wondering if anyone had any advice to share to a film type that wasn't too slow (ISO 200??) and didn't have very high saturation as in Velvia. Perhaps a slide film equivalent of Reala would be good?
Thoughts would be appreciated
