If you can expand your teaching methods to include kids and publish them on

Slide film is generally less grainy than print film in scanning sky. Have
you found any good print film for sky?

P.S. I'm actually not blown away with Supra. I prefer Fuji in my SS4000

How cheap is the Fuji? I usually buy 36 exposure Supra 100ASA for about
$2.89 USD. And, once again, it may not be optimized for scanning, but Supra
100ASA scans very well.
I can get Fuji Superia 24 (not 36) for about US$1.50.

i like the color of slide film better than
to set Vuescan on Clean-heavy to prevent it.
Other than that, in color and exposure it has worked well.

There is no question that most negative color films are lower contrast
and have a wider exposure range than their equivalent speed in slide
film. If your scanner/scanner software has good ability to translate
the dye masks in negative films, you will get better results overall
with negative
You might try Fuji Reala if a 100 speed film is fast enough. It is one of
the few low-contrast negative films that has high color saturation.
