All satisfied with Ektachrome 100? I guess so, but for me, I make the most of it, I mean, no other choices out there.
Velvia's absence has been alot longer than expected, leaving a HUGE void that could be filled, but of course all the usual flood of explanations not to.
"...the market wouldn't support it..." "...doesn't make good business sense..." blah blah blah.
Kodak take a risk, take the plunge...

Unless the 16mm and Super 8 cinematographers want it as well, you won't see it I'm afraid.

Some of the 16mm and Super 8ers want back Kodachrome... the rest does use negative film and scanning. Old Ektachrome had more color saturation, new Ektachrome was formulated for lesser saturation to have more natural colors... probably was hard to convince Kodak for more saturation as they decided for lesser...

...but another choice was great.

Not as I understand it.
But everything I've heard is distinctly second hand.
