Hey guys thanks for all of the helpful replies. We did wind up sending one roll of the least valuable material to Dwayne's, the beginning of the roll came back magenta hued but with very faint ghostly images. The rest of the roll came back totally blown out but we're salvaging it to make our own Film Filter for the editing process. We just sent off another roll to Dwayne's today with an order to pull 2 stops. Thanks so much for the Film Rescue recommendation, we'll try them next if this next roll from Dwayne's comes back too overexposed and purple as well. Having it processed in black and white is a sacrifice we're willing to make if we get better images off of the film. Check us out at: http://dedicated-lane.com/

Hi all, I originally posted this in the 8mm board but have only gotten 1 reply. Hopefully this is the more appropriate board for this topic (Thanks Andries) Here are the Facts: -We have 5 Rolls of Kodachrome 40 Type A -Exposed on Fresh Stock in Late 1997) -Shot at concerts ( ranging from Clubs, to even squats) -Stored in a dark closet -About to be shipped and processed + transferred at Dwayne’s Photo in Parsons, KS Here are the Questions: -Should it be Pushed, Pulled, or Processed as is? - Would you recommend risking processing one roll normally, and adjusting accordingly for the rest of the rolls? Any advice you might have as well as any idea as to what the film will look like after sitting for 13 years undeveloped would be greatly appreciated.

Hmm interesting would the fact that it is concert footage filmed under stage lighting change your suggestion? Would pulling it reduce the image to be too underexposed to even see anything? Thanks for the advice.

I'm working on a project in which the director would like to include some Kodachrome 40 footage on 5 rolls shot in 1997. We're shipping to Dwayne's for the processing. 13 Years later I'd imagine the film density is pretty deteriorated and the people at Dwayne's aren't willing to give me any advice as to how many stops to push it so I'm coming to you guys for your expert advice as to what to do to make the footage salvageable. Thanks!
