I guess I should be grateful that there is anything there to scan after 43
years!!  They have been stored carefully in hanging slide pages and have
not faded at all.

I do prefer the 43-year-old Kodachromes to the 20-year-old ones that I
have.  I guess I just like the old processing!

It certainly doesn't look like digital!  I love my SL but the look is
totally different.

I have gotten lots of compliments on other forums but I guess the
recipients are also in an other-worldly, ancient film mood ;-)
