None of my old VPS negs have any life they are dead flat and I used to give them an extra half stop at least. They were murder to print as a half stop over made them go cyan and a half stop under made them go magenta. The newer films have stopped my reliance on pinko looking Fuji. Fuji pro color neg films aren't completely happy until things are going pink. Mark Rabiner
