Despite some searching, I have not found a simple chart that compares the various Fuji slide films by contrastiness, saturation vs accuracy of colors, granularity, suitability for flesh tones, etc.
For comparison, the Kodak Portra family of print films is illustrated on the back of each pro pack, showing color saturation (NC, VC, UC) at each ISO.
Is there such a chart for Fuji slide films?
For example, I'm scratching my head at the differences between Provia 100 and 100F.
Thanks in advance!

Mark-
I don't know of a chart like you're looking for, and I'm no expert on slide films, but I think this is reasonably accurate:
In order of least to most contrast, least to most saturation, and most to least color accuracy, Fuji's 100 speed line goes Astia, Sensia, Provia, Velvia.
Before the "F" designator showed up, Astia and Sensia were probably the same film. Astia was my favorite, a smidge more forgiving of exposure errors and capable of rendering white as... white. Fuji sells it as appropriate for rendering skin tones.
Hope this helps.
