Kodachrome is a hardy stock. I shot a role 5 years ago, and just had it processed, and it looked incredible. Chris

I found that yesterday. That is how I wound up at Freddy's site. He has the most excellent capture I have ever seen. Beautiful marriage between old and new technology. Chris

I was playing around with Virtual Dub (don't want to abbreviate that one). Really cool program. It looks like it will be easy to convert a frame accurate telecine with this. I like the fact that I can do a batch in photoshop and convert from negative to black and white. Now I just need to come up with a capture rig. Chris

I was thinking about rigging up a projector to do frame by frame capture. However, I am not sure if there are specific models that are better for this, or if there is a camera that can keep up with 18fps. I have seen some folks replace the lamp-house bulb with white LED's. I could take the images and dump them into virtual dub or something like that. Suggestions? Regards, Chris Maness

Depending on how it handles the light metering. You might have to adjust that pot as well. It is a shame they did not include 24fps with that camera. So many Minolta cameras do not have 24fps either. Chris

This is great news. I have shot this stock in 16mm and I like the colors. However, I will miss 64Ts neutral palate and Tungsten balance for greater flexibility. To go from D to T you loose like 2 stops. To go from T to D you only loose 2/3rds of a stop. Also, to shoot in strong sun we will probably need to add a ND filter. Chris Maness

Is Wal Mart still processing Kodachrome by sending to Dwaynes for $3?

Does anyone have the manual for a GAF-738?
