Velvia 50 is back
The original Velvia product provides the High Saturation and Vivid color that has become a Favorite of Photographers
It is an ISO 50
RMS 9 Granularity
High Sharpness and Unique Image Colors Producing
Velvia 50 is back! The original Velvia product provides the High Saturation and Vivid color that has become a Favorite of Photographers. FUJICHROME Velvia for Professionals [RVP] is a daylight type high image quality color reversal film with an ISO speed rating of 50. This film retains extremely fine grain, resolving power, sharpness and brilliant color reproduction. Designed for the wide ranging needs of fashion, product, art, landscape and scientific photography; when precise rendering and enhanced color tone are especially important, this is the film of choice. Further since suitability for photomechanical reproduction and color print production has been fully taken into consideration, this film is optimized for use as originals in highquality photomechanical printing as well as large-sized poster and normal print production.
It seems like these days, those who still DO shoot at least SOME film rave RELENTLESSLY about hypersaturated films like this one. So when I went from shooting all digital to shooting digital and SOME film several months ago, I figured I would give this stuff a try. After all, Velvia is supposedly the film that 'dethroned' Kodachrome. And given the fact that I have ALWAYS been a fan of Kodachrome, it just HAD to be good. Right? Well, not quite. Now don't get me wrong. I like colors as much as the next guy. But not when they just completely butcher a shot. People often complain about rendering of skin tones. But this is NEVER what Velvia was intended for. It is supposed to b a landscape film. However, I have found that it is not the best landscape film, either. I am just not partial to vast expanses of mountain forests (normally a dark grey-green) that look almost kelly green or expanses of golden, grass-covered California hillsides that come out orangish-brown. Of course, in its defense, I have taken some GREAT shots with this film. Sometimes, the hypersaturation just plain-old works. It seems to work well when shooting subjects which are SUPPOSED to be REALLY coloful, like art or flowers. Also, it works well on landscapes that are fairly colorless, but in which a really old, blue sky is desirable. However, I just don't seem to encounter enough situations on a consistent basis where this IS the case to make Velvia a favorite.
