You increase contrast in an already contrasty film and colors will be even more garish. Totally terrible. Birds looks stuffed with Velvia pushed one stop. In my opinion, Sensia II is much better for this use. Some like Provia F a lot. Both can be pushed one stop without going over the top. There's one Canon sponsored photographer who takes boring, mug-shot type of bird photos that borders to pornography in garish and cliche-filled oversaturated images on Velvia pushed one stop. Only an option if you suffer from terminally bad taste an/or are into camp in a big way. P�l - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
