I agree that the P100F is the best medium speed E6 film out there, but when I put Kodachrome and E6 slides side by side on my light table (or if I project them) even my wife, who is not into photography, recognizes that the Kodachromes are clearer and snappier. The need to send them away for processing and the intolerably long wait in many places are the main drawbacks of Kodachrome. But on the level of image quality I do not believe it has been equalled by any E6 film.
