Hello, /p/.

I'm going overseas in a few weeks so it's about time to order some film to take with me (no DSLR yet).

What kind of film should I take? I'm low on b/w, so I was going to buy 100 feet of tri-x, but I'm also thinking that color would be good at times. For color, I'm thinking about shooting slide film for the nice colors. What should I know about shooting slides, and is provia a good slide film?

TL;DR: Going overseas, film buying time.
Buying 100ft Tri-X 400 but may need color.
Should I use slide/Is provia good/What should I know about shooting slides?

Provia is nice, very neutral colors.
About shooting slide:
-It has a Dynamic range similar to digital, so be careful exposing it, and when in doubt underexpose as it doesn't respond well to overexposure.
-More epensive, but if you can deal with the cost of processing it compared to CN, go for it.

If you like Provia, then yeah, use Provia. (In before people wet for Velvia and/or Kodachrome.)

No one makes bad slide film; the only people who want slide film are people who care about quality, whereas there's always the disposable camera and stubborn elderly with grandkids markets for bad color negative film.

I know one bad kind of slide film: Konica Minolta Chrome Centuria 100. It's got a fuckton of grain for an iso100 film. Shadows dont fade into black, they fade into gray grain.
