Strengths:    fine grain, bright colors, scans very well. price is not bad. Very good film for what it was made for.

Weaknesses:    It is not the best film for portraits where natural skin tone is needed. I think the 160 osi film has in beat for flash shots of people.

Bottom Line:   
I tried this film in 35mm and 120 size. It has very bright colors, It is very sharp with very high resolution and very fine grain. I made a 16x20 print from the 120 negative scan and it was outstanding as for as the detail is shows. It looked very good in 35mm size also, except I did not make a 16x20 print.

Strengths:    Bold colors for a print film- not as bold as Velvia, but fairly close. Much easier to use and more forgiving of exposure errors than slide films. The scans I've made of my negatives have all shown excellent results. I have had many 12 by 18 enlargements made from my 35mm negs and they have turned out very well. Great for landscapes.

Weaknesses:    Only available in 100 speed (Where's the Ektar 400, Kodak?).

Bottom Line:   
So far, this film has been the closest thing to slide film I've used yet. In my opinion, it is better than the Kodak Ultra Color 100UC that it replaced. As a dedicated film shooter, I have found my new favorite print film!
