I started shooting Kodachrome in 1966 and it was called Kodachrome II.
I shot half a brick of it in Bavaria in August 1969.
I liked it better than Kodachrome 25.

I see now the II came out in 1961.


These Wiki people are saying Kodachrome X was out in 61 with an ASA of 64!
I never heard of it.

But there's also this which I suppose corroborates it.

I thought the first 64 was Kodachrome 64!
