Color films contain much less silver than BW films. Developing a color film in
a BW developer will result in thin and flat negatives. Not really worth the
effort.

Subject: [pure-silver] Developing Portra and Kodachrome in B+W chemistry
Hello,
I was doing inventory in my freezer and found a 35mm roll of Kodachrome 64. I
keep fantasizing this is the last roll of Kodachrome left in the world. But I
am sure there are others who still have KC hidden in the deep recesses of a
fridge somewhere. Be that as it may, I read in passing, on Apug, I think, that
KC can be developed in B+W chemistry. Any truth to the idea, and if so, what
would be the best brew?
Last week, I was also given 4 4x5 sheet film holders loaded with Porta 100.
I'm
not into colour but B+W. Anyway, can the Portra also be done in B+W
chemistry? By the way, the holders were accompanied by a Graphic View I in its
case and an Ektar 203/7.7 lens mounted on the lens board.
Cheers,
Bogdan
