SHOW NOTES:

The last days of Kodachrome


Kodachrome Tundra '84

Michael, Duane and John discuss the last days of Kodak Kodachrome

Kodachrome in 2011 – Shoot and develop as Black & White

According to the folks at Blue Moon Camera, Kodachrome contains an extra layer that will “gunk up” during BW development, sticking to the film causing some emulsion loss. Develop Kodachrome (as BW) in its own tank so not to contaminate other film stocks.

EV – Exposure Value

“In photography, exposure value (EV) denotes all combinations of a camera's shutter speed and relative aperture that give the same exposure. The concept was developed in Germany in the 1950s (Ray 2000, 318), in an attempt to simplify choosing among combinations of equivalent camera settings”

“Sprocket hole photography is a style of photography that exposes the full width of 35 mm film, creating a photograph punctuated by the "sprocket holes" (perforations) along the edges of the film.”

  1. The mess of developing Kodachrome as black and white film is the remjet backing, just like motion picture film. If you develop it at home in a daylight tank you can use a slight base prewash before developing. You can use tissues or a sponge to remove the remjet off the back of the film. I do it when it's hanging over my shower so I can rinse the remjet that dripped off into the tub away. Anybody who has used movie film in their still camera and then developed it at home should have no problems.

  3. Good show but I feel taking about the zone system in the segment on film developing at home may have been a little complicated for people who have never developed before.

    Cheers! Dave.
