Hi,

I was referring to NC160 isn't that Vericolor?

Thanks,

Austin

I have not found the Kodak Portra 160 to be very good in my M6 but in my
other SLR camera I have taken some exceptional images, especially the skin
tones and detail resolution.  I was asked to photograph two christenings as
a result of the Portra images taken with the SLR.  Perhaps the 'yuk' factor
is the film is not a good match with Leica gear.
