Either way I will get there and get processed.

Miha 2009/3/6 JOACHIM KAHATOWSKY <jkahatowsky@xxxxxxxxxx> You can however, send it to Swizterland, but they only forward it to Kansas City, so you might as well send it directly.

Here is the link: http://www.kodak.com/eknec/PageQuerier.jhtml?pq-path=9/7010/6994/1095/1147&pq-locale=en_US Miha 2009/3/6 FLAVIO GORI <flaviogori@xxxxxxxxx> actually no choice. yes, the BMW is a motorcycle. though i usually think of it as a family member. so much time together without any problem! flavio 2009/3/6 JOACHIM KAHATOWSKY <jkahatowsky@xxxxxxxxxx> Here is a link to the processing lab in Kansas city. That BMW I am assuming it is a motorcycle? I hear that the Fujichrome 50 is quite good but I have not had a chance to use it. I am going to New Orleans and Texas in two weeks and if the bus goes through Chicago I will buy some at Calumet Camera. A great store. I have been there before and the have a whole wall of fridges just dedicated to storing and selling film. I usually stock up when I get there, or else I will order some in bulk on line when I return. Unfortunately, there used to be a Kodachrome processing plant in Toronto(near where I live) that also closed. The closest one to you would have been in Switzerland, but they closed that one also. So there is really no choice. http://www.dwaynesphoto.com/newsite2006/slide-film.html Joachim ________________________________ From: FLAVIO GORI <flaviogori@xxxxxxxxx> To: leicareflex@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, March 5, 2009 6:08:25 PM Subject: [LRflex] Re: A sad news for Flexers joachim, thanks for the news about the kodachrome in the email. just a way to wait lighter :-) italy is far away from kansas city! yes, the 25 asa was really great. how i miss those times. in 1983 during my coast to coast and back trip driving my BMW R100T (i still use it) i shot 15 kodachrome rolls. 10 of them were 25 and 5 were 200 asa (if i correctly remember). flavio 2009/3/5 JOACHIM KAHATOWSKY <jkahatowsky@xxxxxxxxxx> I just bought 4 rolls of Kodachrome 64 as well. I remember the 25 the best film ever made in my humble opinion. Plus, now you have to send it to Kansas city for processing, however, there is something about the anticipation of getting the developed slides in the mail. Then seeing them is another story entirely. Hopefully, the price will come down a bit and I can buy a 35mm f2 or even better 1.4 in the near future to complete my outfit.
