It is not over saturated it just depends on how you shoot and scan it.

Yep. I love that film, but you do have to remember that it has an exposure latitude very similar to that of slide film.

All I've shot so far is the free roll of 120 I got from Kodak 2 years ago.  Guess I shouldn'a shot it in a Brownie Hawkeye.  Sad
