Effective Speed Of Some films?

If you read the original question, you will see that Fuji Astia 100 (RAP) is
mentioned. Film choice is subjective to personal preferences, this
photographer obviously likes Kodak E-6 films as well as some Fuji materials.
I personally prefer to find a film that I like and then keep to it unless I
have a good reason to change. Some people just like trying out various
brands and types of films. I guess its really a case of each to their own.

Why are you using Kodak film for slides? It's no secret that most
professional photographers who shoot slide film shoot Fuji slide film.

Kodak a few years back fell a sleep and let Fuji produce a superior
product.

Try and shoot a roll or two and see for yourself.

Hi,

I will go a travel and want to take up some band of slides. I want to
test them for their effective speeds, but it seems that I will not get
enought time. I think many of you have already did the job, so may I
get the suggustion from you.
The list of film is:

a) Kodak E100VS ( Based on my experience, this should be ISO 140,
right?)
b) Kodak E100G
c) Fuji Astia 100 (RAP)
d) Kodak EB

Thanks

So why do some people rate Fuji Velvia 50 at E.I. 32?

I personally rate Fuji Provia 100 (35mm) at E.I. 125 whilst rating
120
roll film at the nominal ISO100.

Surely, rated speed depends on accuracy of personal equipment?

Yes, which means asking us is a complete waste of time. I use
leicaflexes and Kodachrome. I rate PKL at 250 and PKR at 80.

Because they don't understand exposure.


a 2/3 stop overexposure is hardly "not understanding exposure".
