Mama don't take my Kodachrome away!
Unfortunately, one of the business decisions that Kodak had to make.
Beautiful all around film that made some fantastic imagery.
Unfortunately, the convoluted and complicated processing was far too expensive to make any profit on at all.
The last roll I had done by them was fairly steep in price for mounted slides, and I think that was pre-'80. Shortly after I had heard that it had been discontinued.
I liked the FE a lot, and shot a heck of a lot of Tri-X and FP-4 in mine.
