Hi,

There was Garden Fair in Szczecin "Remember about gardens" on 17.05.2014 and I took my Olympus OM10 with loaded Fuji Superia X-Tra 400, however I rate it at ISO200 (which was intended Wink ). It was noon, so plenty of harsh light in which film cope very well in my opinion.
This film has nice space for overexposure, next time I'll try rating it at ISO100 on few frames, because I cannot see any difference rating it at ISO200 or ISO400. This is really nice as you could shoot it in bright sunlight as well as get one more stop while shooting in worse lighting condition.

All photos were shoot with Tamron SP 01A 35-80mm/2.8-3.8 which is a fantastic lens and has way more usable focal range on film than on my APS-C Canon.

All photos developed and scanned at Lab at the crossroads of Aleja Wyzwolenia and Księdza Jana Długosza in Szczecin (which I recommend).

Here are the photos:
#1 70mm f/9 1/250th


#2 70mm f/5.6 1/500th


#3 40mm f/9 1/250th


#4 35mm f/4.5 1/1000th


#5 35mm f/4.5 1/30th


#6 50mm f/5.6 1/250th


#7 80mm f/5.6 1/250th


#8 70mm f/4.5 1/500th


#9 55mm f/9 1/250th


#10 50mm f/8 1/250th


Cheers
Mateusz

I guess it's a good thing Wink. It's true and honest Superia X-Tra 400 bought for 35zł (£7) for 3-pack.

Final results are not only by my side, well I exposed a few frames properly Wink, but the lab where I develop and scan negatives does a very good job as well.
As I see it, it's more important to find a good lab than choosing between one or other film brand Smile. Another idea is to scan negatives by yourself. I did this with two rolls using my Canon 600d, flash and Lightroom for adjustments, but it's time consuming process and results are good, but not as good as on professional scanner. This was scanned by me: http://forum.mflenses.com/fuji-superia-200-super-takumar-55-2-and-tamron-02b-28-2-5-t65997.html
