from local photo store Summary: I am still missing Fujichrome RD100, but Provia 100F is the true successor that reminds me of the slides I made some 15 years ago. However, Provia is much better suitable for scanning and has natural skin tones. Strengths: Good highlight/shadow balance especially if slightly overexposed as needed for scanning and publishing. Shadow details rendered well due to moderate maximum density even with mid-range scanners (Dmax ~ 3). Neutral and "naturally saturated" colors come in sunlit areas with nice blue skies, and also in overcast wather. Realistic skin tones demonstrate the substantial improvement over RD 100. As a very sharp and virtually grainless film perfect for landscapes to show finest details. Weaknesses: A noticeable bluish cast in shadows on clear days most likely originates from diffuse reflection of the blue sky, not from the film! Here Agfachrome or Kodachrome slide films as well as Fujichrome Astia or Sensia have a slightly warmer color balance. Sharpness and resolution put certain demands on the photographic equipment used. As a professional film, it is expensive.
