The Kodak website has official notice the world's best color reversal (slide)
film is discontinued. Yes, Kodachrome 25 is no longer going to be made as
part of Kodak's "streamlining" of the product line.
Further review of the product pages will reveal that Kodachrome 200 is also
dead. THe site urges us to switch to Eeeech-ta-crhome, or Fadachrome as my
1970's slides reveal.
So, thanks to Kodack, we are left only with K64 as an alternative to
Ektachrome or the Disney-on-acid oversaturation of the Fuji's. It's Fuji
greens or Ektachrome browns.
Ugh!
Take a look at an color mag like Railpace and you can see the ridiculous
shifts of Ektachrom and the Fujis.
So, horde the Kodachrome now.
Damn! I guess it is black and white time. Anyone want to buy a polarizer?
