Fresh Provia 100F 135 back in stock

Yup, Kodak film costs 5+ € more than other films around here, systematically.

I received a bonus and it's the only way I can afford some color. Last E-6 I shot was some 5 years ago... so I bought some rolls of E100D from Netherlands: 17€ per film seems to be an acceptable blood sacrifice, now additional expense - stupid warming filter for a single stupid E-6 film brand, because Kodak's slide film is so cold....

Do you use a Skylight-1A filter? I'm trying to decide which warming filter to get.

I use a Tiffen 812 filter with E100. I like the results I get. (I’m not going for technically perfect color accuracy, just slides that look nice to my eye.)

Haven't decided which one to get. Will touch that film only when spring comes, so there's some time to choose one.
I hear people using 81A

last ektacrome I bought was some of the "Flic FIlm" "chrome 100", which is respooled eastman 5294 ektachrome 100D. might be cheeper in your area - PhotoImpex shows it at 21.99EURO while they have the Official Still eketachrome at 25.99 euro, all VAT in.

A bit of a story on Medium format slide: Someone linked/recommended Fotocasión in Madrid as having Provia in 120 stocked up (also at former price), in one of these availability threads. I have tracked this a bit the last days, and even Fotoimpex had 120 Provia only in the Berlin store earlier this week and quickly gone.
Being in Spain, I inquired to this store about the status of that Fujichrome. They have a limited supply, and confirmed its scarcity as they expect no restocking anytime soon from the distribution chain; but the batch expiration date is 8/2025.

I have been quite interested in the Fuji situation and am aware of all the pessimistic possibilities about their roll film manufacturing (aka, a mess) but it's quite optimistic to me.
Of course, I purchased some.

Do you use a Skylight-1A filter? I'm trying to decide which warming filter to get.

Years ago I ditched lens cap for UV filter and last summer I got a B+W KR1.5 which is a Skylight filter, low filter factor, IIRC equivalent to Skylight 1B. I have only shot color negative and B&W through that filter, so can't give much of a review. It's multicoated to better than the older Hoya UV I had.
My intention was to get a Tiffen 812, but not much in the European used market, and an "always on" subtle filter seems good to have. After a long time I was surprised how many nuances/Scales of warming filters there are (KR, 81A-C, Tiffen 812).
