When the film came back from Kodak I flipped. The last time I shot K64 I had Pentax equipment. All my Nikon and Leica slides are E6. I keep trying each new one as it comes out looking for realistic colours an less contrast (I haven't tried RDP III). The my favorites were EPP and EPN, but even they were too contrasty for me. The K64 exposed through my new 21 and 135 lenses blew me away. The scenes looked like I remembered them, and I could see detail in the shadows without washed out hilights. I am in love again. My 2 cents......
