For the past several years I've been shooting nothing but slides (mostly Kodachrome-25) and B&W, but for this trip I want to bring print film since I'll want extra prints. My problem is that color print films have all been "updated" or superseded recently, so I don't really know what film to choose. I'm looking for suggestions for 100 and 400 speed color print films that will do well in a high-contrast outdoor setting. Medium contrast and moderate saturation would be best, IMO. Also, would Agfa print films be of any advantage in Europe? I'm planning to have some of the stuff I shoot developed in Berlin. - -- Pieter Bras
