Shan,
Where would we find these "exotic" slide films? I must admit that I've
never looked for these at the local Wal-Mart. Also what is the price
differential in say, Ektachrome and Fuji VELVIA (RVP)?
You also mentioned E-100SW as the "warm" color balance version. Forgive my
ignorance, but in layman's terms what does "warm" color balance actually
do? Does it do something special for warm colors like reds and oranges?
