Kodak Ektachrome E 100 VS

E100VS Film gives photographers the most vivid, saturated colors available in any 100-speed transparency film. It's a daylight-balanced, color reversa

KODAK PROFESSIONAL EKTACHROME Films E100G and E100GX are the next generation of color transparency films. Both films deliver extremely fine grain (rms

I've only shot 2 rolls of it, just to let you know. Grain is fine, colors are fairly strong(and accurate) but not over the top, contrast is right where I like it. Overall, this is an excellent all around slide film. The only problem I had is it's...

Grain Contrast Color accuracy Color saturation-strong but not overkill

Not warm enough to use it over another film Price

I used to use Velvia 50 for "super saturated" slides. But when I tried E100VS, I was hooked. The grain is not as fine as Velvia, but it's more than acceptable. And the colors are very close as far as saturation is concerned. It's a stop faster than...

skin tones moderate speed fine grain strong colors(if that's what you like)

a little bit pricey can't think of anything else

I only shot two rolls of this film, so my experience is limited, but I didn't like it much. The grain was very fine, but the sharpness was lacking. My major problem with it was that it looks very thin. Blacks are not that black and highlights are not...

fine grain. good skin tones

Not much real dynamic range from dark to light. not sharp.

This product and its consumer version (EBX) are essential for capturing exceptional outdoor photographs. The grain is very good, allowing 20x30 enlargements that still show good detail. Contrast range is also good and shadows are not distractingly...

Vivid, realistic, eyepopping colors Fine grain Shadow detail Warm, inviting images

Cost?

This is an excellent slide film. Colors are accurate, grain is non-existent (120 size), and the cost is reasonable.

Fine grain - Accurate colors - Handles mixed lighting very well - Great all-purpose slide film

Colors didn't seem extra vivid to me (they were, however, anything but dull)

I've just started using this film for stock photography --just starting using it after it was superceeded by 100G. After shooting about 30 rolls, I've decided to use it as my main stock film. It's nearly grainless, a one-stop push works great, the...

Grainless, tolerant of different lighting conditions, the saturation makes photos pop, pushes well.

Kodak has a knack for creating a real winner and then discontinuing it. I haven't tried 100G yet, but I hope it's as good. I also haven't tried 100SW, which is supposed to also be really great--and really discontinued as well. I guess one weakness...

This is a beautiful film which is a little bit more saturated than a totally neutral film. It is superb for night or low light photography and has a slight blue bias, but not the hideous blue bias of Provia which makes sky and clouds a weird magenta....

Superb reciprocity, colour balance, tonality, fine grain, gentle saturation, nice whites and blues, warm browns, greens and reds.

None, but watch the blue bias in the shade.

Over the last year I have found myself choosing this film over all others for everything but people shots. The film has great reds, purples, and whites. While somewhat contrasty holds shadow detail better than velvia and dosent go as cold. Skin tones...

Fast, hand holding camera and long lenses are easier. -- color is just a little better than reality but not so exagerated you cant predict what it is going to do. -- Shadow details dont get lost in the contrast and dosent go cold in full shade.

Skin tones are very unpredictable when used as a portrait film, but works fine when people are 8 feet or more away. I use kodakSW or fuji reala for people.

E100S is easily the friendliest slide film I've come across. I've used quite a few Fuji and Kodak slide emulsions in the past and this is the first I've shot consistently. The grain is virtually undetectable, even at 16x20, and I've found the film to...

Fine grain Outstanding, accurate color Lots of latitude for a slide film

Lost detail in very saturated areas

Well after chatting to my E6 guy who does me a nice slide in 120 Velvia most of the time, he suggested that I give the E100VS a go. I have just picked up my roll and I rated it bang on Asa-100. Results, nothing short of splendid. I had a look at the...

Fine grain... Extra stop of light vs Velvia Saturated colours but more realistic than the Velvet.

None so far but I can see that one might want to be careful with subjects where red is abundant.
