best c-41 color film for flowers, including macro

This was shot with Portra 160 VC.

I'm in C-41 negatives, cannot talk on positives. I support not using Kodak Ektar 100 for flowers, doesn't make difference if RF or SLR. I shot Ektar alot but not for botanics. The color gradient of red and greens "out of the box" doesn't look right for me. I like standard Fujicolor film for this purpose.

Examples with different C-41 emulsions:


Fujicolor C100 (the last roll) 🙁 in Ricoh 500GX


Kodak Gold 400 (expired) in Minolta Vectis S-1


Fujicolor C200 in Konica Hexar RF
