I have to agree with you Scott, I like the E200 better also.

colors??
Ray, Stuart, Gary, Thanks for the nice comments. I have
updated the page which now includes a similar shot with E200. It is also a
bit bright, but the colors seem nicer to me. It's all a personal choice I
guess. http://www.creatorsview.com/astrophoto/nms04/polartrails.html

Scott,
that's a lovely star trail composition with the foreground trees. It's a
keeper!
To judge the film's colour response, and the nature of the "big
difference in color" that you report, we'd really need to see your E200
trails side by side with it. But from the Velvia shot alone, the trails
seem to be predominantly bluish, with weak oranges and reds. I'd expect
more pronounced/diverse colours with E200.
