My not so official understanding is that the *original* Sensia (not Sensia
II) was the same emulsion as Provia. Sensia II is supposed to be the
consumer form of Astia. If I'm wrong, please correct me.

Peterson's Photographic magazine (2/01) says that Sensia II is the
"consumer" version of Provia F 400, a film that has gotten rave reviews
and that I enjoy, myself. (It seems to me that there has been some
controversy on this point.) If Peterson's is right, Sensia II is slightly
grainier than the pro version (RMS 13 for Provia F; RMS 15 for Sensia II),
but that's still awfully good, since Provia F 400 is touted as the finest
grained 400 film available. So Sensia II would be a real bargain, since
Provia F 400 is quite expensive.
