Kodak Professional Elite Chrome Extra Color 100 Slide Film 

DESCRIPTION

Kodak Elite Chrome Extra Color 100 Film brings a new dimension in color reproduction to Kodak's Elite family of slide films. Featuring the highest color saturation available in a 100-speed consumer slide film, it has the versatility at this speed to provide higher shutter speeds to stop motion or allow the use of smaller apertures for increased depth-of-field while delivering extra bright colors. Try Elite Chrome Extra Color 100 Film for your outdoor picture-taking, especially for nature and scenic photos where you want bold, dramatic colors. Elite Chrome Extra Color 100 Film is designed for exposure with daylight or electronic flash. It can also be exposed with tungsten (3200 K) illumination with conversion filters. You can use this film to produce color slides for projection, or have color prints, enlargements, duplicate slides, internegatives, and photo CDs made from your original slides.

Strength:

Colors explode off the slide and are richer than you remember! Faster than Velvia and ice box is not necessary. Can be purchased locally, though at significantly higher prices. ($13 for 2-36 at Ritz.) Really makes things colorful.

Weakness:

Wouldn't use it for portraits. Not everyone has it yet.

A great slide film! I just ordered 15 more rolls from Adorama. I plan on using it mainly for the stock library I am developing of local sites and air shows, parades, etc.

Strength:

Bold colours in overcast conditions.
Reasonable latitude.
Inexpensive (relatively).
Readily available.
Sharp.

Weakness:

Colour saturation is a little too garish. Too warm for skin tones.

I found that this slide film boosted colours in dull, overcast conditions and had a little latitude to play with. However the palette is far too warm for my taste: skin looks tanned but it's orangey fake-tan! Even flowers are too rich in the warm (orange, red) end of the spectrum. Worth considering to jazz a grey building up on a miserable day, or to boost a sunset. Other words it has applications and is forgiving, but those applications don't include portraits.
