Dick: I rate Velvia at 40. It is too contrasty for people, but beautiful
colors for nature or anything that could use an extra "punch". Sensia is
just like Provia, but cheaper. It also comes in 100, 200, and 400. Provia is
only 100 and I use it more often because it comes in 100' rolls. The 100
speed is by far the best, but the other Sensia films aren't bad for the
speed. I bought my Jobo used and it has paid for itself many times over - Tina
