I had so many problems with Kodachrome developing after Qualex took over that I quit using Kodachrome. They were routinely ruining about 40% of what I sent them. A lot of them had the purple spots, others were cut between the frames, others had dust, dirt, fingerprints and fibers dried into the emulsion. Their response was to send me replacement rolls of film. Of course, that doesn't pay for the time and expense of reshooting everything. Never again! Tina Tina Manley, ASMP www.tinamanley.com
