And another.....For some reason Ektrachrome 64 is much much darker than Velvia 50....Almost all my macro shots were completely black, or very underexposed. I'm not at all impressed by the color range, nor by the contrast....it's far too blue as well. I do like the shot above, where the blue color works well with metal, but it's horrible for normal shots that don't include sunlight. Thursday I'll pickup my 2nd roll, which I used at a Xmas fair outside, on a cold and sunny day, so I think it should turn out much better. Nevertheless, I'm very dissapointed with the overall results...although it might be great to use in special ways I guess.
