Rich, still accurate colors. Excellent for outdoor shots in golden autumn and spring, as well as for indoor portraits in early morning or late afternoon.

Bad company for flash (too cold tones).
Extreme price ($7 per roll in Moscow)

Prefer it both for portraits (no flash) and nature - but not in summer (here comes E100VS instead). Very sensible to overexposure (which is usual for a slide, though). Cold tones in summer shots. A bit of warm purple tone in winter.

Excellent colors... Smooth textures... Virtually no grain from medium format... Very good exposure latitude for transparency... Colors seem to be true... at least to my taste...

For landscape work... I really haven't found any yet. Continued use will be the test.

I'm a portrait/wedding photographer, so I mainly shoot print film. But occasionally I like to dabble with landscapes and scenics... and for that I generally use transparencies. My favorite is Velvia 50, but I'll also try some others when they're considered "hot" items. I tried this E100G and was very satisfied with it. I found that it maintained great color balance with slightly enhanced tones. My 645 slides were very smooth when viewed with an 8X loop... with virtually no visible grain. I haven't scanned any of it yet... so I can't say anything about that. But I've had a couple of my landscape shots enlarged to 16x20... and they are beautiful! I'll definately keep a couple pro-packs of this on hand to suppliment my Velvia. Sometimes you just don't want all those bold colors that Velvia produces... and I feel like this film will be a nice addition.

Very fine grain (way better than any previous Kodak film, short of Kodachrome 25), good balance, can be pushprocessed without showing much grain.

Dynamic range is very good, but still it's no Provia. Tends to curl more than Fuji film (I shoot 120), and this can cause some scanning annoyances. A bit pricey in Italy.

Coming from E100S and then Provia100F, I'm very happy with the E100G. Grain is similar in size to Provia, but less intrusive (no "pepper grain" in the sky). Shadows don't show that awful blueish tint that plagues both the Provia and the E100S, and neutrals are neutrals. The film scans well, and can be pushed about 2 stops (I rate it at 320 and require 2 stops p.p.), keeping a very good grain structure (better than Provia 400F!) but of course showing strong contrast. At nominal speed, has a bit less DR than Provia 100F (that is a real champ), but still it's waaaaaay ahead of EPR 64, for example. Skins are OK. A very good all-purpose film: it's now my favourite film!

Too expensive Totally not sharp as said! Dull colours

This new film is not a winner. It's as thin as a sigarette paper and quite dull in colours. Because this film was an experiment, I will definitely stay with Provia/Velvia 100f. (Wow, these transparancies are sharp). E100G is NOT sharp and scanned at 600 dpi on a High-end Drumscanner you will find loads of grain. I asure you. So Fuji is and will always be a winner for me. (By the way, Kodak Black/White film is great).

Correct Skin Tones Fine Grain Clean Whites

Does not render some hues correctly (browns, greens) I would rate this film slightly lower, perhaps ISO80, I found that the pictures had a slight tendancy to underexpose

I have to say, I bought with high expectations and now I must say that I am slightly dissapointed. Although this film gave nice colour saturation, good sharpness and fine grain, I was unimpressed at how innacuratly it rendered some hues especially light browns and greens. I believe this film over saturates the blues as well, although this might lend itself better to other forms of photography. On a positive note, this film rendered whites correctly and skin tones correctly. Althougb it has the benefits of better skin tones than Velvia or Provia, I believe that for my portraiture I will stay with Astia.

- Nice, realistic (but not dull) color - Great sharpness / resolution - Low price

- Not for those who need super-saturated slides: E100SW, Velvia, etc. are clearly more saturated.

Color: Very accurate color rendition with pleasing skin tones. Slightly cooler than E100SW but in no way dull. Colorful subjects still pop out of the picture while neutral subjects maintain a very realistic appearance. Very similar to what the eye sees. Grain: Under magnification (8X-10X), E100G is definitely sharper than E100SW. A digital wristwatch that filled only 1/100 of the frame (it was a full body shot of my friend) was completely readable. Very similar in grain structure to Fuji Velvia. Exposure: I rated the film at 100 without any problems.
