Wow.  Adorama costs for Velvia 36x with processing are $8.54 (AU$13.45) and
Kodachrome KR64 with processing are $8.98 (AU$14.14).  

<< I never thought I could "understand" a film, but I realise I understand
 Kodachrome and am lost with Velvia.  >>
I got frustrated using Velvia with macro shots of red and orange-red
flowers--either it's underexposed or blooms out with intensely saturated
colors into area where it shouldn't be.  I bracketed some shots of flowers
both under and over with Velvia and didn't like any of them.  I'm sure
Kodachrome would have shot it more correctly.
