comparison

Kodak Ektar 100 vs Fuji Velvia 50

Maximum saturation, with or without latitude.

The same photograph, same exposure, both looks at full strength. See the untouched original.

The difference

The two most saturated films in this collection, from opposite sides of the negative/slide divide. Velvia has more contrast and clips highlights abruptly; Ektar keeps a negative film's highlight latitude while getting most of the way to Velvia's intensity. Velvia leans green and red, Ektar leans blue and red. For a bright sky you cannot afford to lose, Ektar is the safer route to the same energy.

Which to use

Ektar 100

When highlights matter and you still want the colour loud.

Velvia 50

When you want the most saturated result possible and will expose for it.
