Re: [APML] Sensia 400 = Provia 400F?

["Brian Larmay" <astrobri@ameritech.net>]

Hi Chris,

It seemed odd to me that sensia would be a provia.

Ive talked to others about sensia and most say it is a great slide film but
the provia is more balanced and that was talking in respect of storm
photography.
Provia 100F and Velvia 50 being the winners with Sensia always in stock just
in case a spare is needed.

This was the only pro shop in Niagara Falls, (Canada side) where there was
only one roll of Provia 400F, Velvia 50, and a few rolls of E200.
The rest of the film was all print film that looked as if it were sitting
for quite some time.
This place is tucked away where hardly any tourists go.

Man...Id move that place if it were mine and push my business to the top
where all the tourists hang out.
It was really quite sad to see that he had the whole C-41 processing outfit
and wasn't able to use it because business was too slow.

I could only imagine making a killing in the correct location recieving all
that american $!

Brian
