I tend to stick with Kodak film. .. but now I need some opinions and suggestions ... About 4-5 years ago, I used VPS 135, 120, or 220; but those emulsions are no longer available. I want to continue to shoot Color negative emulsions -- I don't want to deal with slides at this time. For that matter, I don't want to deal with the 1,000 to 1,500 slides that I have as a result of trying to hold down my processing costs in the 1960's and early 1970's. Looking at the Kodak web site, I see ... *** E-Family (EKTACHROME) E100G, E100GX, E100VX, and E200) *** Professional Ultra Color 100 or 400 *** KODAK PROFESSIONAL PORTRA Films 160NC, 400NC, 160VC, 400VC, 800, and 100T The web site seems to say that each of these is the is the best film ever made -- in that case, why do they have more than one emulsion for sale? BTW, they don't make it easy to find out which emulsion and sizes are available. MGD
