Local camera buffs here say that Pro Image 100 is positioned as a low cost
film to withstand rough conditions encountered by professionals ( as
mentioned below humid  and hot environments ?). But they caution that it is
meant to be used in one session, i.e. storage of partially used rolls in the
camera supposedly leads to image degradation? I seemed to notice that it has
a tendency for some yellowish hue on faces.

I have used it a lot, but stopped when the local Kodak dealer began
promoting the Supra 100 at the same price of Php 65.00 which is about US $
1.25 per 36 print roll? Is this price cheap?

Fuji offers a competing product called Proplus also at ASA 100 for the same
price.
