Hi John,
Thanks for the detailed answer.
I've never tried Astia or even considered it. Is it as sharp as Provia?
Very slightly less. See the second posting from yesterday with the
additional comparison to Kodak's films; it also contained a comparison of
Provia vs. Astia for acutance (perceived sharpness):
On the topic of acutance, Provia 100F looks better than Astia's, but not
by much (alas, Kodak doesn't provide these numbers, so it's pure
interpretation of the MTF curves):
1.6:1 1000:1
Astia 55 lp/mm 135 lp/mm
Provia 60 lp/mm 140 lp/mm
