When I acquired my Leica III there was an exposed Kodachhrome film in the camera. The date on the box was 1944. Unfortunately it had been kept in a warm place and I was told was unprocessable. I didn't know that Kodak produced a 22degree Scheiner film nor that it only had 18 frames. the leflet tells you about the plate which works with Leica spools but not cassettes.

Anthony,

 

The question is, where can you get this Kodachrome processed? According to Kodak, the laboratory in Renens, Switzerland has been closed. Nevertheless, if European customers continue to use that address, the mailers will be forwarded to Dwayne's Photo Service in Kansas. Also, Duggal in New York still processes Kodachrome according to Duggal's website.

Even if the latent images are ok, the Kodachrome process has changed at least two times. K 12 and K14

 

I seriously doubt it can be processed and nobody is going to risk screwing up a balanced line with expensive chemicals to do a roll for you.

Dear Friends,

 

This is not diapositive film,this is color negative film,you can not process by K 14 type developers. You can find the formula of this developer from cinema film developing laboratories from the US and you can make it.

 

Other way you can develope it by classic B&W developers but it will be B&W.

 

Older "Kodachrome" films can develope by BW developers.

 

But please attention your film has flammable base, not acetate ,acrylic or etc...

 

DON'T USE HAIR DRYER TYPE DRYING SOLUTIONS, IT CAN BE FIRE ...

 

You know all films before the 60's are flamabble base.

 

Another problem is emulsion strenght.It can be leak during the development and finally

you have transparent base...
