No grain. smooooth as Bold, punchy and slightly sureal colours Sharper than a sharp thing

Terrible skin tones Can be tricky to use inside with flash Price (unless you can buy where i do)

More punch than Mikey T, colour to make your retina's burn out and smooth as silk. This is the Ben Hur of slide films, although there are some limitations, you'll either love or hate the reproduction qualities of this film. If you've tried and have'nt had good results "your doing something wrong". Rate it at 40asa (not like the box says)use it outside, don't take portraits (unless you want a sunburnt look) and be very carefull when using a polariser as the high contrast can turn an awfull lot of shadow detail black, including parts of the sky (i have proof). Great for blowing up too as noooooo grainnn!!!! Don't trust your lab (even if their pro's) to print a first run, as my first velvia attempts we're never properly colour matched and are way below the quality of the original, don't be tight people, buy a good lupe and a light box. Some people don't like it, that's cool, but a lot of pro's use it, what does that tell you................

punchy saturation, non-existant grain, nice exposure latitude

not cut out for portraiture, but for everything else, it can't be beat!

Nothing beats this film for landscapes/still lifes/fine art color photography! Beautiful colors, nice sharp results. I have used this film for just about everything. I am now moving to a 4x5 LF camera an still fully intend on using velvia. my camera bag never lacks a roll of this film!

No grain Sharp Vivid colors low light or full sun

None. If you are looking to shoot sports, than use fast film.

Absolutely the best film I have ever used, low light or full sun. Anyone that complaints about this film either doesn't use it correctly or can never be satisfied. For low light a tripod is essential.

Strong color, but not overblown

Somewhat greenish with long exposures

The colors on this film are somewhat less saturated than I have been led to believe. I was expecting extremely brilliant color, but instead I got more realistic rendition, but a little on the bold side. For daylight use, this is an excellent film, a little too slow for indoor use, although I have gotten some good results.

realistically vivid color rendition sharp & grainless

if you need speed, use faster films

Shot the first roll of this I ever bought at ISO 50, outdoors, w/o tripod. Excellent right off the bat. I keep looking for the weaknesses others mention (too green, artificial-looking, etc)and can't see them on any of my slides. Reminiscent of Kodachromes 25 (sigh) and 64. Color rendition outdoors is right on the money to my eye. Others find it pleasing, too.

Everything! This film captures everything exactly as you see it with your eyes (as long as it's lit by the sun)....I shot a picture of a red and yellow coneflower against a dead dirt background as a test....this film pulled every last bit of color out of the relatively small flower, whereas any other film would have rendered the whole thing dull.

•As many have noted, this is an ISO 40 film, not 50. •A little slower than you might be used to, but the results are worth any trouble this might cause.

This is the single greatest 35mm film ever made. I love every single thing about this film. Crystal-clear, ultra-sharp, NO grain, PERFECT color....what more could a photographer ask for? Hopefully Fuji won't go the way of Kodak and pull it off the market. Once you see the results, you'll never want to use anything else ever again. I shot some scenics of a golf course in Palm Springs and the green lawns literally jumped off the picture, but without looking blurry or smeared. Very true to life colors. White balance is perfect under daylight - a small mound of rippled white sand I shot in Palm Springs showed every bit of its clear glassiness. Not recommended for portraits or tungsten light.

Why would you need it with such a perfect film?

Ya...None! Well, slow, and that's why they make tripods.

I love this film! The shadow detail is great and the fine grain makes it even better. The first time I shot a roll the images just took me be suprise as to the detail and color that was this film captured. I haven't had any problems with blues and greens as someone else stated. This is the film I carry all the time along with Provia 100 RVP III. If you haven't tried Velvia, you need to!

Sharp, strong colors.

Unpredictable blues and greens. High cost, excessive contrast.

Strong colors? Yes, but they are entirely unpredictable when it comes to Green and blue. YOu never know what will result on the slide after it is developed. Many green items look as if they are lit from the inside and are glowing. Water turns almost black, and NO there was no filter used. YOu can't controll your work if you never know what you are going to end up with. I wasted two year trying to learn this film, on the advice of "well meaning" folks. I now only use super saturated films on totally overcast days, when the pop they produce is really needed

Virtually "grainless" Can take a good amount of exposure lattitude Good contrast reproduction

Green can become overpowering Need the equipment capable for utilizing this film to its fullest (not for the casual user)

This is a great film for enlargements and really getting strong color saturation. Properly explosed shots are rich and colorful, though you have to be careful that any green tones don't become overpowering. Forest shots, or even a lot of moss-covered trees or rocks will be really GREEN. Filters may correct this, though I don't use a lot of color correction unless I am going for a particular effect. I have heard that some photographers do not like this film because the color saturation is too deep. For artistic shots, though, I think it gives a little extra punch in the right conditions.

interesting reviews: I guess the bottom line to those who bash this film is why do so many of the photograghic staff at national geographic use this film?...It is great film and the only film that renders the scenes as I remember them...different strokes...Galen Rowell was awesome and this was one of his films of choice....
