Playing with Kodachrome

[mudman]

Just a few shots with the F100 and some k64

no need to spray and pray, got this one on the first shot.

Cheers,
Eric

This reinforces a rule remembered ages ago: if you want strong reds and blues, take Kodachrome, if you want greens to come out appealing, take Fujichrome.

Hmm. I picked up some expired but supposedly frozen Kodachrome - 6 rolls of 64, 2 rolls of 25 and 3 rolls of II Professional as part of a 'purchase all the old film in my freezer' buy a few weeks back.

I haven't shot Kodachrome before. I was trying to decide between selling it and shooting a little bit of it. I think this post just pushed me towards shooting a few rolls at a minimum while I still can.

Brian,

Just to let you know, you can't use the Kodachrome II, as it is an older process that is no longer used.

Ah, I wondered about that but hadn't had a chance to research it. I'm not terribly familiar with film from that time period.

Thank you for the info!

That skateboard picture is amazing. Congratulations.

thanks. I've snuck that one into a batch of photos that will be run by a local newspaper, hehe. Film lives in print again!
