Best film for travel? That depends on what YOU want and the type of 
shooting YOU do. Do YOU shoot in bright or low light or both? Do YOU 
like the grain of high speed films? Do YOU like muted, neutral or 
bright colours. Do YOU print 4x6s or 20x30s or something in between?

Asking us about films that will do x, y and z is something we can help 
you with. Asking which film is best is about as good as asking us which 
shade of red you prefer!!

Last, but not least, going to a major shoot with a film you have not 
extensively tested beforehand is about the most bone headed thing 
imaginable!
