Kodachrome

1935–2010

The gold standard of color transparency film. Warm, saturated, stable — 'they give us those nice bright colors' (Paul Simon).

Kodachrome Film

American

Invented by Leopold Mannes and Leopold Godowsky. Defined how we remember the 20th century in color. Discontinued 2009.

Colors formed during complex K-14 lab process, not in the film itself. Exceptional archival stability — colors last centuries. Warm bias in shadows.
