I think it is a nice read, I especially liked the reference to viewing a Kodachrome slide being akin to looking at a stain glass window:

Just ordered a "brick" of K64 to go with my K25 in the freezer
![]() I'm in Toronto myself, and would encourage anyone interested in buying some Kodachrome, to contact Eight Elm Photo. They will order it for you. Ah, Kodachrome and Leica glass........the perfect match. |

This is an image of my desk/library when I was little more than 20. You see the yellow container? So young and so fond of K25!
I used almost only K25 and K64, until they raised to crazy cost in Italy. IMO they were absolutely the best film ever made. |

That article was a pleasure to read. It's nice to see the Kodachrome Project get some well-deserved recognition.

Enjoyed the article in the Toronto Star.
I have many boxes of Kodachrome slides taken in the US between 1972 and 1976, including some from a trip by car across the country from Princeton, New Jersey, to San Francisco and Los Angeles and back, in summer 1973. Still with the famous vibrant colours and sharpness. Not taken on a Leica, of course, as I could certainly not have afforded one back then, but on an Agfa Super Silette. The exposures were a bit hit and miss. I had an exposure meter at the time, but not sure I used it much. I've been using Kodachrome again recently, and have about thirty rolls of it, which I hope to use up before the end of 2010. John |
