Maybe the slides have faded at the same rate!? Actually the prints are vibrant and no one would consider them faded. Maybe it's the cool Eureka climate and fresh air of the North Coast. In any case, I'm still a big Ciba fan. I did just get back my first 40x50 inch LightJet 5000 print tho. Wow! And it sure is easier cleaning the dust in Photoshop instead of on the slide. To Ciba or not to Ciba, that is the question. . .
