We took the same shots, & the same time of day. I would buy nothing but Fuji film. I went horseback riding with my dad. The Fuji pictures were more sharper, with much more vibrant colors. My dad switched to Fuji too.(after he saw my pictures) He used kodak 800 speed film I used Fuji 800 film. We had the same kind of camera.
But, for just vacations, stuff around the house, the 400 will do a great job. I shoot at least a roll a week just of everyday life and this is the one that I choose all the time. I use this film just normally for everyday stuff. Anything less it basically a waste of money. I have a basket full. It isn't grainy when you enlarge the photos, and the colors are just outstanding. I use the 800 for the really important stuff though because I think the colors are more vibrant.
You can't go wrong with the Fujifilm Superia X-TRA 400. This film has great color production and performance. The price is also just right.
Grain and sharpness are very good for a fast film. Modern 400 speed films are better in every way than the slow 100 speed films when I first started shooting 35mm. I buy bricks of Fuji Superia X-TRA and onsies and twosies of everything else and my pictures have never looked better. This is now my standard film. Because of this I see no reason to shoot anything slower than ISO 400 these days. Of all the color films I like Fuji Superia the best; the colors are rich and saturated without looking unatural.
It's a great price and provided you process using a professional laboratory, the results will be extremely pleasing. I've used this film on a few occasions under different lighting situations and I suggest everyone who's into photography from the level of beginner to professional to use this film. My prefered method of using this film is a combonation of exsisting light and strobe.including on camera flash.
