Hi Oben,

Thanks for your answer.

I've been told so too. Basically, I wasn't trying to imply that Provia 100F
performs poorly in this respect, but rather I was interested in finding out
just how badly Provia 100F is influenced once it exceeds the reciprocity
boundaries (i.e. when taking shots using exposure times of 2+ minutes).

I have used Sensia 100 the consumer version of Provia recently and I was amazed at how good it was with long exposures. In fact one shot that I made with aperture f16 that went for well over 2 minutes came out with no obvious colour casts whatsoever. The green lawn was a perfect green and the scene looks amazingly like what I remembered it that night. An amazing film for night shots. I don't know if one can generalise it to Provia but I think it would not be unreasonable to believe Provia would be as good. What's even more amazing is that the Sensia had been sitting in my camera bag for a year before I used it... and was loaded and unloaded many times. I was expecting bad results but was amazed when I got it back from the lab. I can't wait to see what my latest roll is going to look like. It has shots I made for the TOPE 6 and I'm up to frame 26 so it shouldn't be long before I develop the roll.

Cheers
Oben
