Fuji GSW690II (Texas Leica)

On close inspection the 50 ASA transparency film is basically grain free at the resolution scanned. It's very 'dense', which may also be due to the apparent under exposure - although I get the feeling that slide film scans more contrasty any way.

Color looks stunning off the scanner

There was an article somewhere i cant remember a famous world events photographer whose name i cant remember mentioned about the density of certain films and how this marks those films as different from digital.

Really these colour beach photos are rich. Pink sky saucer im not sure which digital camera could have captured all those subtle hues.
Footsteps is wonderful.

Thanks Rob - the Velvia is absolutely killer stuff - best I've seen so far for color work - well worth a try with your new kit.

Thanks Ahmad - I agree 100% on the density look of slide film - it's very attractive I think, when exposed correctly!

Brilliant stuff Chris. How do you find only having a few shots affects your work?
