If film photography is a niche market, then Kodachrome is niche of a niche. The K-14 process is a real pain, requiring all kinds of special chemicals and only one lab on the planet handles it anymore. So it's not really surprising that Kodak finally retired the 800 pound gorilla of color film.
Paul Simon sung about it, national parks were named after it and some of the most famous photographers in the world shot with it - and as of noon today Parsons Kansas, the absolutely, positively must-be-there deadline for Dwayne's Photos has come and gone. It's official, momma has taken the Kodachrome away.
With the end of Kodachrome upon us, I thought I'd share a couple of links with you guys. A quick look at it's legacy, if you will. . .
There are over 20 various presets in the pack. Of course there's no way to absolutely recreate the original, but these are some very nicely done presets that can give you that look.
@moncooga yeah, like I said in the other thread, Kodak dug Kodachrome's grave back in the late 80s/early 90s. First off, print film overtook the film market for casual/amateurs, and then Velvia came and blew Kodachrome out of the water for slides.
Tweets ahoy!
