Hmm,
Portra 160 VC--sometimes the blues seem to go nuclear as AG has
commented. I like the NC for skin tones but unless profiled not so hot
for other uses. Moose's profile treatment makes it fine for
macro/landscapes. Perhaps that is a one film solution. The Ektar 100
is very very fine grained and scans very nicely, but too saturated for
good skin tones, IMO, and can muddy up in the shadows if underexposed
a bit. Ektar 100 is available in 120 now too. The 100 UC was good
nough for most uses in my book, but it is largely gone.
A, Wish I didn't just run out of Kod UC 100 in the freezer, Mike

I'll also agree with Ken here and say that current films are excellent.
Kodak's entire Portra line, Ektar, Fuji's chromes (especially Provia
400X),
and Fuji 800Z are all great films. I've been shooting Portra 160VC a
lot
lately, and am very eager to give that a go in 120.
