Slides vs Negatives

[Nicole]

I just finished shooting some slide film (Velvia 50) this last weekend and posted a couple here on apug at (there was a url link here which no longer exists) and really am enjoying it. I'm going on another trip next week with some more and am looking forward to seeing the results again.
Kind regards,
Nicole

Hi Nicole,
I find for myself that if the intended end use is prints,I shoot it on print film, and have them processed by a good pro lab. I usually project all the transparency film I shoot, and any occasional slide I want a print off I have a Ilfochrome print done off it, and although Ilfochrome is very good I don't think any process to make prints from slides is as good as prints from colour negative film.
