Last of the Kodachrome

As we close the year of 2010, on December the 30th, Dwayne’s Photo lab in Parsons, Kansas, USA, did its final processing of any Kodachrome film that had been submittted to them. They were the last lab still processing this film. Kodachrome was an iconic film stock, that was a mainstay of many photographers, and also used alot in the motion picture industry. With the advent of digital technolgy for capturing images, Kodak stopped making the film in 2009. The last ever film produced was given to Steve McCurry, he shot the roll earlier in 2010. The results are sublime.

This footage makes fascinating viewing as the camera is running at 500 fps, making the total clip of over 8 minutes represent just 30 seconds of actual time. This is from Nasa’s 1969 Launch of Apollo 11.
