True.  But the reproduction in print varies with the type of processing you
use for repro'ing it.

One mustn't forget that Rowell's end-use for his transparencies is
reproduction in print.  Without digital "tweaking", a Velvia transparency
prints with saturation closer to a projected Kodachrome.  Another thing,
if you read Rowell's book, you will learn that he loved the pre-1974
Kodachrome II (as did we all), but became dissatisfied with the
replacement (K25) due to its lack of saturation and increased contrast, 
six years before Velvia came along.
