[APML] Color Negative Sheet Film Choices?

[Gil McFarlane <gilboastro@yahoo.com>]

I have a project in mind using my press camera and 4x5
color sheet film.  (I want to make very large prints
on color paper at my local college, and they only
support reversal paper.)  Do you have any suggestions
for
films?  I want to primarily record star fields, but
would like some faint red nebulas to be visible.  

Would it work to use slide film and contact print onto
negative film (that is, if there are no good print
films currently available.)

B&H Photo lists these color print films available in
sheets:

Fuji NPS 160
Kodak Portra 160NC
Kodak Portra 160VC
Kodak Portra 400NC

Not much to choose from.  These are the slide films I
could try using and contact printing onto print film.

Fujifilm Fujichrome Astia 100-F
Fujichrome Provia 100
Fujichrome Velvia 100
RVP Fujichrome Velvia 50 
E100G Ektachrome Professional Color Slide Film
(ISO-100) 
E100VS Ektachrome Professional Color Slide Film
ISO-100)
EPN Ektachrome 100 Professional Color Slide ISO-100)
EPP Ektachrome 100 Plus Professional  (ISO-100)
EPR Ektachrome 64 Professional Color Slide Film
(ISO-64) 


Any suggestions would be much appreciated.  At the
prices charged for sheet film, I can not easily try
each out.  


Thanks,
Gil
