These are fairly specific films for different purposes. Fuji Reala 100 represents the most general purpose film. Very low grain, good saturation and not too high of contrast. Agfa Ultra 100 - High contrast, high saturation - for when the light is low contrast and you still want strong colors. Konica Impressa 50 - good saturation, low contrast, very fine grained. A good companion film to the Agfa Ultra 100. Best use is when the light is medium to high contrast. Agfa Optima II 100 - Good saturation, medium contrast, does particulary well with reds/browns - film of choice for the red rock country of southern Utah (Bryce, Zions, Canyonlands, etc) Fuji NPS, NPH, NPZ - great people/portrait films. Accurate skin tones and lower contrast to handle extremes in clothing (white dress/black tux) Ilford Delta 3200 - great for low light. My lab does a pretty good job with this one.
