I honestly consider this to be the highest technical quality colour film stock available on the market today, all things considered (sharpness, grain, colour fidelity, etc.)
No colour negative film compares.
E100 in particular has a slightly lower contrast and wider dynamic range than other slide film stocks (most of which are now sadly out of production anyway...), which makes it more of an all-rounder - provided that one knows how to expose properly.
The colour balance tilts towards the cool side (in other words, it looks as if it was calibrated to something like 5000K instead of 5500K), but this is easily compensated by using a warm "light balancing" filter like a Tiffen 812 or a B+W KR3 - I use one often with this film, except in direct sunlight (where it isn't needed).
Everyone should try and shoot slide film at least once. Though not as forgiving as colour-negative film, the results you get with ektarchrome are spectacular when you nail the exposure with punchy colours and superb resolution perfect for displaying on a slide projector and digital scanning. Great for sunny holidays but avoid strong contrasts between highlights and shadows. Slide film is more expensive to buy and develop, so be more thoughtful of what you photograph.
This one was disappointing to be honest, as I had hoped for some lovely saturated old-school colours, but this new Ektachrome emulsion is not for a vintage look. It is very modern in how it renders colour, and is a bit more temperamental to get the exposure right in order to get shadow details.
Nice film to try. Pricier end. Need to get the exposure right before you take the shot.
I bought this roll as other slide films are increasingly hard to get my hands on. I had read the reviews about this film having a cold look but I was shocked when I scanned the negatives. There is nothing wrong with a cold look, but thats not how I want to document spring/summer which this ISO is best suited for. Given the price of slide film and the cool tones this film is suited for, I can't see myself buying this film stock again.
