In the future I will avoid commenting on film choices
or slides vs. cards because these subjects create some
tension in the list (:-) I smile but I am serious)

Fuji Velvia only comes in one speed, 50.  Some people prefer
to use this film slighly overexposed but that does not mean
that the film speed is overrated (this has been discussed
quite a bit in the past in photo-3d).  Since I got my RBT S1
which I have been using on fully automatic exposure I have
been getting excellent exposures with either Velvia or Fuji 100
(Sensia and Provia) so I don't think the statement about FUJI
being notorious for putting higher film speeds is accurate.
