Fuji Reala.  ASA 100.  VERY nice film indeed; it seems to me to be
saturated without jacking the contrast way up.  It has a reputation
for handling troublesome colors, and troublesome lighting conditions
(like mixed kinds of artificial light) much better than most films,
and it seems to me to do pretty well at those things.
