That was always the problem. Timeliness of processing. Unless you were living near a lab, Kodachrome was not a film you could keep loaded in your money camera. Enter Ektachrome. A little blue at first, but gets the job done, and with processing anyone could do. Enter Fujichrome. Wow-o-wow colors Enter C41 Mini labs, especially Fuji Frontier. 1 hour or less! Kodachrome goes to the camera store's refrigerator bottom shelf, Enter Digital, right now! *"They give us those nice bright colors They give us the greens of summers Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah I got a Nikon camera I love to take a photograph So Mama don't take my Kodachrome away" * -- Regards, Sonny http://www.sonc.com http://sonc.stumbleupon.com/ Natchitoches, Louisiana USA
