Superia 1600 vs Natura 1600

• given the state of affairs in the film market, is there any realistic chance that Fuji would produce two different versions of a niche product like a ISO1600 film?
  
• according to the data sheets for both films the specs (spectral response, characteristic curves, granularity ...) are 100% identical

In any case this film is excellent, one of my favorite color films, true ISO 1600, excellent in indoors lighting, and can enlarge to 8x10" without problems. Do OPTICAL enlargements; if you try to do it the d!gital way (by scanning), the grain will blow up horrible due to grain aliasing! I did a comparison about 10 years ago -- 8x10" done by the Frontier system (d!gital) versus the same frame enlarged optically; the difference in grain was dramatic.

Sadly, optical printing is not as easy to find as it used to be.
