Fuji Provia 100F is what I use most and the 400 speed Provia is
excellent as well. Provia 100F pushes well. Haven't found the need
to push the 400 Provia, which is relatively grainless at its rated
speed.
As my ancient Polaroid 4000 was chugging away this morning, I was
certainly giving thought to going digital. I guess I'm like most
folks, having tons of slides or negs filed away, so I won't be giving
up filmscanning anytime soon. As good as the Slideprinter is, even at
their prices scanning your own is still pretty economically feasible.

Bill . .. . I am a Fuji fan and use Velvia (RVP ISO 50) for
landscapes.
The colors are a bit over saturated but I like it. There is a new(er)
Fuji
Velvia 100F (RVP 100F) which is faster and a bit less saturated. Fuji
Provia 100F (RDPIII ISO 100) is another good choice, for a less
saturated
("more natural") wildlife or scenic chrome. Provia also comes in a
ISO 400
version which I have not used. Now the million-dollar question, or at
least
multi 1000's have you considered switching to a digital camera?
For processing I use The Slide Printer ()
here
in Denver they do a very good job and have a mail in service. I am
sure you
can find a pro shop in your area. Good shooting to ya, John

Subject: [filmscanners] Best 35mm slide film?
Hi--
Long ago, I used to shoot a lot of landscape and scenic photos on
35mm Kodachrome 64. I'm going to start shooting again, and was
wondering what people would currently recommend for 35mm slide film,
and where they recommend getting it processed. I'll be scanning it
with a Nikon SC4000ED.
TIA,
--Bill
