Velvia is indeed more saturated than other slide films, but the very first roll
*I* shot and got back from the processor, I went "WOW! **FINALLY**, a film
that sees what *I* saw!" I love Velvia. Mind you, I also love Provia, and
it's virtually on the other end of the scale in terms of saturation. It's also
nice, but for different reasons, none having to do with "fidelity" to the
colours in a scene.
After all, in real life, colours change with the time of day, but I'm usually
trying to reproduce what I saw in my mind's eye...
