I also liked the Velvia 50 and I used it if I wished
saturated colors for the slides, however my preferred
slide film is the Fuji Provia 100 RDPIII, it's a very
well balanced film; BTW the news about the Velvia 50
and the substitute raw material are good news, but
like someone wrote previously, we'll see if Fuji had
success replacing the raw materiales for the film in
practical use.- 

All the best
Carlos
