Chris, as a longtime Kodachrome lover myself I can recommend Fuji Provia
F100 without reservation. While it doesn't have that wonderful Kodachrome
"look" and unique palette, it is an excellent film with accurate but
saturated color, and with sharpness and granularity that may exceed
Kodachrome's.
Another terrific film that I really like is Fuji Astia 100. As a
watercolorist myself I would describe Astia in those terms - it has a sort
of pastoral quality for landscapes that's quite different from Kodachrome or
Provia. Some folks say Astia is the most "accurate" in terms of color
rendition of all Fujichromes. I don't know, but I do like it.
But I would still take Kodachrome 64, and at least one of the Fujis.
