Re: [APML] What Film is Best?

["westergren" <westergren@netzero.net>]

Don't forget Fuji Provia 400 slide film.  It has the blue response that E200
lacks.

The Fuji HQ series seems to be a low cost "consumer" film, that hasn't been
converted into 4 layer color (can't say for sure because I've never seen a
data sheet for it).

Take a lesson from the Kodak Supra400 fiasco:  if you find a film you like,
get a couple years worth to store in the fridge to tide you over.
Unfortunately right now the best color negative films are gone.
