John,

How do you compare Provia 100F and E100VS?

I also noted earlier on that you'd shot Fujichrome 50 from its 
introduction...how have your slides held up over time?  I've got some I 
shot in 1985 that still look super.  One in particular is a solid string of 
Tropicana orange refridgerated freight cars and the color is really vivid.

Jim--
I shoot Velvia at asa40.
I shoot E100VS at asa100.
So, my preference is for the 100VS since it's asa100 (& grain & color
are very close to Velvia).
Sooooo sorry for the confusion.
John
[PS--that said, some do like to push Velvia one stop and shoot at 80.
There was at least one NatGeoSoc photog that did that. Don't know if
he still does.]
