Here's an easy question ... (hopefully).
I want to take some old school portraits of my family. I'm going to use a classic Topcon 35MM Camera, (magnificent lense on that baby!), and I'm wondering what would be the best 35MM film to use for this venture. I'm going to use it for some really nice portraiture.
I thank you for your time.

There was an interesting Fuji film that I heard of as well, but I don't know if it is still made. It was made for photography, but one feature was shot with film, "What Dreams May Come", (which I have always been fond of). I think it's called "Fuji Velvia".
Thank you for your reply.

We have used both their slide and negative films and they are superb. I think the 160 would be good for fine-grain portraits for you.
