It's a little late but about three days ago someone asked if Fuji 200
Superia was a good choice for an all around film, especially for
landscapes and archetechture.\

I would respectfully say that a 200 speed print film would be a bad
choice.  The new 400 speed films are just as sharp and free from grain
while adding one stop of speed or if you wish,  the 160 speed films
are almost as fast and show much less grain, higher sharpness and a
smoother color palatte.

My personal suggestions would be Fuji Reala or NPH on the 100 or 400
side of the equation.  If a more saturated color palatte is required
then try Fuji Press 400 which is available at B&H for $55 on a 20 roll
box.
