Buy Kodak KODACHROME Camera Films Till Stocks Last

Kodachrome was the favorite color reversal film for a whole generation of photographers and photo enthusiasts, and now Kodak has decided to stop production of this popular camera film.

Kodachrome was introduced in 1935, and easily became very popular for professional color photography, especially for images intended for publication in print media, as it had high color accuracy and dark-storage longevity. However, Kodachrome film required complex processing and in many countries it was sold with processing included in the purchase price.

As digital cameras and easier film processing with Ektachrome became common, now only one Kodak certified facility exists in the world at Dwayne’s Photo in Parsons, Kansas, who will continue processing Kodachrome films through the end of December 2010 will continue to offer Kodachrome film for sale till supplies last.
