And slow iso color neg to me is 400. Though if it was a tripod deal like this I'd bring the 100. Certainly way less fear of exposure error. No need for bracketing. Way way more latitude. Its not like we're saying one film gives a different effect from the other. All those subtleties get blown away by the presets of the scanner. Then after that what we do to it.
