Buying Kodachrome/Ektachrome 16mm 100ft.


Recommended Posts

Well, I actually just got off of the phone with a Kodak rep to check the actual availability and pricing for Kodachrome and Ektachrome. She told me that they only had the Ektachrome 160D available.

I don't know if she just didn't want to look etc...

I couldn't find Kodachrome or Fuji Velvia at film emporium either. Any other suggestions on where to buy in US?

what about the notorious lack of latitude for these reversals? (medium speed Ectachrome particularly) How much latitude + and - do they have? I'm planning on doing a side by side test with the V2 neg and Ektachrome-my colorist seems to think we can get in the ballpark, but I'd rather shoot Reversal but am concerned if I'm off in exposure.

Thanks

Hey John. I've seen Kodachrome 40 offered in 16mm at a few places around the internet (sorry but I can't remember the names at the moment), but I only seem to be able to find 100 foot spools. Does Kodak not offer it in 400 foot packages? Also, it seems that Kodachrome has never been available in 35mm MP, going all the way back to World War II. Do you know the reasoning behind this? I'd personally love to do daylight shots with Kodachrome in 35mm.

 

Regards.
