Blimey, you must have been out of touch!!  Fuji's Velvia is a
magnificent film, 50 speed transparency, very vibrant and saturated
colour reproduction, very very fine grain, probably the best landscape
film.  Disadvantages are very tight exposure latitude, and trickiness in
using a polarizer with it (makes the sky look a bit unrealistic).  Quite
expensive as well, so I haven't used it much, but when I have I've loved
it.  I'll be uploading some Velvia shots in the next couple of days -
I'll post a link when they're up.
