Velvia RVP 50 vs Provia RDPIII 100F
Mamiya M645 Pro
Mamiya-Sekor C 45mm f/2.8
Hoya 81a Warming Filter
Singh-Ray 3-Stop Soft Reverse GND
4 Seconds @ f/16 for Velvia 50 & 2 Seconds @ f/16 for Provia 100F
For me, Provia records what I see and Velvia records what I wish I'd seen and how it's remembered in my dreams. They are very different films indeed. Provia has its palce. But in colorful, high-contrast scenes, Velvia shines.
One thing I've learned since this day is that anything beyond 2 seconds with Velvia 50 will require exposure compensation, whereas Provia requires none even at 2 minutes. For this scene, with Velvia 50, 5 seconds would have been the correct exposure.
