Also, you should have seen the same kind of exposure time / aperture settings when you shot with Velvia compared to Provia 400F if the ISO setting was wrong. Between ISO 50 and ISO 400, there is a 3 f-stop difference which is quite easy to notice if you shot the both speeds within a short time of similar subjects in similar light conditions.
