I'm about to try Velvia for the first time, but am confused by the speed
ratings I've heard being used. I know Fuji rates it at ISO 50. Yet I've seen
mention in several discussions, magazines, etc that it is often shot at ISO 40
or even 32, which seems to go against wisdom that slide film should not be
overexposed. Is there something special about Velvia as opposed to regular
slide film?
I always thought print film could use a little more exposure for better
saturation, and slide film is the opposite (which makes sense), if any
adjustment is needed.
Am I missing something? What do our Velvia/OM users shoot it at?
Thx.
