Tina:

The problem with Kodachrome is processing.  I have used both Kodak
(Qualex) and a local, BWC Chrome which has labs in Dallas and Miami
Beach.  I feel BWC does a superior job and I have never had problems
like lost rolls, etc as I have with Kodak.

I am fortunate here in Sought Florida, since BWC picks up at many local
camera shops and I get 48 hour processing turnaround on Kodachrome.
(BWC will also push and pull if needed.)  But they do mail order also.

Here is the email address of the owner, Ms. Lou George.  Ask her for
information on service to your area.  lou@bwc.net.  Tell her I
recommended BWC to you.  And good luck on your shoot!

Thanks Thomas, Chuck, Mark, Wilber, and Pete -

I'm buying Kodachrome and Agfa to try and will try overexposing the
Astia,
too.  I have to have color slides so Reala is not an option,
unfortunately.

Thanks!
