I took four rolls on my trip to Taiwan. Images burned great even under low light, e.g., dimly lit temples, outdoor markets at night, etc.
Two or three of the scanned slides (done by a local lab) were poor; but, the slides themselves look superb on my lightbox.
Conclusion...this chrome is a lot of fun.
Wonderful film that I would use over and over again. The slides were crisp and beautiful and bright, indoor and outdoor. Handles flash photography well. I have no complaints about this at all.
Provia 400X provides much more contrast than its predecessor, Provia 400F. The better grain characteristics do make images clearer, however, the most visible differences/improvements are the warmer colors and higher contrast.
The color and grain characters of this film make it a superior successor to its predecessor (Fuji Provia RVP 400).
Improved color tones and grain characters make it a far superior choice over its predecessor.

I have been using Velvia for years, however, Velvia is quite contrasty. Under bright sunlight, the shadow area loses details. Shady area also has a blue cast. Provia 400x solves these problems. The price you pay is the slight increase in grain size, an acceptable trade off in my book.
