It seems to be somewhere between say Provia 100F and the old Velvia.

The non-flash people shots on the roll (I did not post them, but there were some) also were too saturated and too warm. I have not shot a lot of Velvia 50 but it seems to me that this one has similar characteristics to it but a higher speed, so from that point of view it is a successful effort. I will use is in landscape or nature photography, especially if the light is dull. Nathan - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
