And another 2c worth - I was unfortunate enough to shoot a roll of E100VS
on a model in late afternoon sunlight.. Her fleshtones went off the
planet, with very weird saturated yellow-gold areas, almost
'solarised'. It looked as if I had used some technique to deliberately get
the effect..
I admit it was processed by a non-pro lab, so this ain't scientific
evidence, but I would hesitate to ever use this film again in early morning
or late afternoon light, esp. now after hearing these comments on the list.
