Yep - my standard load of Fuji Superia ISO 200. Fine grain and very pleasant colour rendering. It's pretty tolerant to a stop under or over. Slide film is an entirely different matter. I rarely use it, but when I do I meter every shot by the incident method. Sunny 16 worked very well on this trip in the intense Italian light. Most of the time I was using the IIIf at 1/500 at f11, which gave me plenty of DOF with the little 35mm Summaron. Shots in the shade were around 1/200 at F8.
