Chris,
Was the print you had enlarged from AP or terrestrial photography?

Subject: [APML] Provia 100F - amazing film!

I recently had a 30"x40" type-C print made from an internegative that
was
from a trans of 35mm Provia 100F.  From a viewing distance of around 3-4
ft,
the grain is 99.9% invisible.  I can't believe it.  Even if you get
within a
few inches, the grain is smooth and not objectionable.  A 30"x40" print
from
35mm!  Unreal.  This film is awesome stuff.  I was going to go the
Ilfochrome route but the lab decided the image came out better on a
regular
C print.

Just think of what 100F 8x10 sheet film could do...... <VBG>

Just thought I'd share my findings.

Chris
