(I don't like navy blue skies). I suppose that the market has been overwhelmingly pushed by the success of Fuji to the saturated Provia and Velvia look. Questions: 1. Are there any transparency films that render colors more naturally than these saturated films? 2. Or, does one have to go to color negative film to get a more natural, less-saturated look? If so which color negative films? 3. Actually I've always like the pastel look of the old Ektachrome. Are there any transparency films that have that pastel color rendition? - --Mitch/Bangkok - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
