Of the three FujiFilm slide films, Provia 100f is by far the most versatile. For being slide film it has decent exposure latitude, medium saturation and contrast. It’s our favorite portrait slide film because it does well with skin tones, not making them go to red, especially the n shooting in even light. Pay close attention to your exposure when shooting this film since all slide film doesn’t have high exposure latitude, meaning it doesn’t do to well with over exposure.
