Fantastic! I believe the film you are mentioning is is the original Kodachrome that was started in 1935. It had an ASA rating of 10. Then Kodachrome II came along in the 60s and had an ASA rating of 25. It was a very unique and complicated process as described below because it started life as B&W and the color was added during processing as compared to other color transparency films such as Ektachrome that had the dyes already in the raw film stock.
Tom -- you never disappoint. You assume everyone on this blog gives a shit. Remind me never to ask you what time it is. I really do not want to know how the watch works.
I just wanted to share an experience and not get into the minutia of the production.
I thought it was an interesting story. Amazing what had to happen back then to get results that pale today with a smartphone. When we were at Cape Canaveral a few years ago the tour guide said that the computing power in any of our phones was greater than NASA had when the Apollo missions were flown. Makes you wonder how people survived back then...
