Velvia was the reason I found a Fuji developer studio in the first place - all cameras would take 35mm, but find a location which would develop it was a challenge of its own.
I'm not a big film photo geek (probably under 100 rolls over a decade), but once you found someone who could push/pull develop your colour film, that makes the choice of film sticky.
Came for the contrasts, stayed for the contrast fix-ups - once I found a place which did Velvia 50 & Ilford 50, that's all I bought.
