Oh crap. I've got three rolls of Kodachrome sitting over here on the shelf that I didn't get developed yet. |

I saw that article a while back. I have an old box camera like the one on this link. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dQM9SEvSjwI/SaBDiY8FNmI/AAAAAAAABIM/P5BNYJSGdiU/s400/camera.jpg Negatives are about 3"x3". It still works and still has film in it. Condition is similar. Was hard finding film or processors as of mid '80s (last time I used it). It also used Ektachrome film I think. Maybe Kodachrome... |

It is getting very difficult to find 110 film for my camera. Never mind trying to find it for the SX70. |

Was Ektachrome for slides and Kodachrome for regular pix? Remember flash bulbs, flash cubes and flash bars? |

quote: I thought Ektachrome was for slides and Kodachrome was for pictures but the article mentions/shows Kodachrome as color slides. Maybe Ektachrome was for color pictures. I'd google it but haven't got time right now. I also have one of those cameras that use the flash bulbs and even managed to hold on to a few unspent bulbs. You ever try to count how many filaments are in those suckers? My first camera used the cubes. Mom and dad had one that used the bars. I have no idea where those two cameras are these days. |

My blond next door neighbor bought some film for her digital camera, her mechanic is one of the best and he says she can come over and take pictures of him while he is changing the fluid in her turn signal indicator reservoir. I thought that was very kind of him. LOL! |

Ektachrome and Kodachrome were both slide film, ektachrome was easier to process, and could be done in home based darkrooms. Kodachrome could only be processed in the larger, more expensive photolabs, and has always been an industry top grade standard. Idive, I think that camera uses either 120 or 620 film, my old professional equipment {Bronica) used 120 (2-1/4 x 2-1/4" format. Been outdated totally by my 12 MP Nikon DSLR's. My multi thousand dollar equipment (in the 80's) is just a neat looking paperweight now. |
