Well, it can be pretty much anything that you want, can't it? It's my understanding that the aim with Kodachrome was (is.....) accuracy of colour. So, properly exposed and processed, the slide should be a close representation of what you saw. A bonus was near-archivity (ouch!) although we don't know to what extent the slides shown have changed from their original state. > > Regards, Bob S. > > > On Tue, Oct 28, 2008 at 4:19 AM, mike wilson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > >> > >> From: "Scott Loveless" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >> Date: 2008/10/27 Mon PM 12:31:52 GMT > >> To: "Pentax-Discuss Mail List" <pdml@pdml.net> > >> Subject: Re: chromes from the thirties and forties > >> > >> On 10/27/08, Cotty <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> > On 26/10/08, PN Stenquist, discombobulated, unleashed: > >> > > >> > > >> > >Some nice classic early Kodachromes here: > >> > >http://www.openmyeyeslord.net/ALookBackInHistory.htm > >> > > >> > > >> > Fascinating, thanks for posting Paul. > >> > >> Agreed.
