One of them is this Ektachrome 100VS. Being rated at 100 ISO, this medium format wonder can drench your world into a saturation that is beyond your comprehension. As vivid as your eyes can see through your camera’s viewfinder, it will render truthful colours that is both rich and dimensional giving your images a glow just like of someone who has a radiant soul.
