Hi Matt,
I've narrowed my film down to Velvia and Astia.
Velvia - Landscapes, Birds & Macro but it blocks up pretty bad in
sunlight w/ deep shadows.
Astia - My main wildlife film. It gives great natural colors on fur
animals and perfect skin tones. It's better in direct sunlight with
shadows.
Provia - I tried a couple of rolls but did not see the need, it's sorta
between Velvia and Astia.
I always carry 2 bodies and each body ALWAYS has IT'S film in it.

Hi Everyone.
Have any of you had problems with too much red in the skin tones using
Provia?
I think this might ONLY be a problem with very fair skinned people but
my 1
year old girl looks a little red & blotchy with Provia.
Anyone use Astia?
I think it goes Velvia for mega color, Provia for all round and Astia
for
portraits...
