I think it will replace E200 as a fast slide film for me. Currently I'm trying to decide if I like Provia 100F more than E100. I really like E100SW. I haven't been shooting enough chrome film to really give it a comparison. I've been shooting mainly neg film for convenience. Plus, I'm very comforable with Supra 400 for most things. But I prefer having trannies as the end result. I can't seem to have it both ways!

I find the fast slide films so grainy and washed out as to be virtually useless. The fastest slide film I have ever been happy with is Provia 400F (not the old Provia 400). I would suggest sticking to negative films if speeds higher than 400 are needed. Nathan "Rodgers, David" wrote: > Speaking of fast Fuji, has anyone tried Provia 1600?
