Hi everyone,

after countless calls and e-mails to dealers in the U.S., the U.K. and
continental Europe it seems clear to me that neither 5x7 nor 13x18
Velvia 100 is available any more in any of these countries. However, I
could identify a source in Japan where 5x7 Velvia can be ordered at
reasonable conditions. For those who are interested, here´s the link:

Hope this helps a great format to survive for some more time!

Best,

Achim

Well, it's a) Velvia 100F, not Velvia 100, and b) it's out of stock.

100F renders less subject contrast than 100. Otherwise they're the exact
same emulsion.

The 100 I've used and seen is a lot more blue. Or saturated in its
opposite. 100F has much warmer balance.

Short answer? Yes. So does Fuji, otherwise they would have
discontinued Velvia 100F when Velvia 100 was introduced to avoid this
very subject. At least in medium format, I found that Velvia 100 closer
to Velvia 50 in both color and contrast than 100F.

That's right. 100F is the odd one in that it has a similar contrast to
Provia. The dye set is the same as 100 however.

Who is this Michael Benveniste anyway? How the heck would anyone (outside
of chemists employed by Fuji or their patent attorneys) know that a"dye set"
in one film is the same as another. What is a "dye set". Is this a term
Benveniste made up? I am getting SO tired of all these self-appointed
experts like Benveniste (with no credentials) who give us "facts" in the
newsgroup.

Michael: Support your position with real, hard FACTS or shut up.

Well I normally would be glad to back up my assertions with facts,
I'm not the one who mentioned "dye sets." All that I observed, and
all that I'm qualified to observe is
-- Badger Graphic's listing was for 100F.
-- Fuji markets Velvia 100 and 100F as separate products.
-- I've used Velvia 50, 100, and 100F, and find 100 to be more similar
to 50 than 100F.

I don't consider myself an expert on _anything_ photographic.
