Leslie, I have used about 10 Velvia 100F rolls by now, My sense is that it is not as different than earlier version. Probably less vivid in colors (but still pretty vivid as compared to say provia), but as sharp as earlier version. But you want to do people photographs with Velvia? Obviously, you have more experience, but I have never heard people doing it regularly. Try few rolls of Provia instead. cheers, achal Achal Pashine, Ph.D. Pediatric Immunology Center for Clinical Sciences Research, Room 2120 269 Campus Drive Stanford, CA 94305-5164 ----- Original Message ----- From: <LScottPht@aol.com> To: "List for Photo/Imaging Educators - Professionals - Students" <photoforum@listserver.isc.rit.edu> Sent: Saturday, November 01, 2003 4:04 PM Subject: gallery reviews and Velvia 100F > I don't usually review the galleries because I can never find fault in > anyone's work, and if I do, I hate to say so.
