Re: [APML] OT: Print Films for Daylight Use

[Brian Sledz <brianhome@linkus.net>]

Jon,
I just took 2 photo trips using Fuji Reala 100 for prints.  It is very 
fine grained.  I used it in the Tetons and in the Utah Canyon areas.  
If you want an all purpose ISO,  the Fuji NPH 400 is good.  And for 800 
I used Fuji Press or NPX, which is very fine grained for 800, not like 
the old days.  4x6 prints will show very little grain, if her camera 
goes to 1/2000, and you plan on a good amount of indoor shooting this 
may be the best all around.  The Fuji NPH has great latitude for 
different types of lighting.  It works well with tungsten.
