I shot my last three rolls of K64 early this year, but to tell the truth the brilliance and detail of the images from my Canon 5DII make it look a little dull. So I am less sad than I expected.

However there is one thing I will eternally be grateful to Kodak for, that is all of my 12,000 odd Kodachromes are dated.

Now in retirement I am finding my monochrone negs and other colour films more problematic to date and classify.

Finally you mentioned Dufaycolour, I shot and processed some of this film in the 1950's (I think). It was a simple black and white reversal stock with the colour reseau on the film base.

You are dead right about excessive density, it was quite unprojectable. But hey even those old dark slides respond to scanning and digital tweaking, so I am now seeing them in a new light for the first time in half a century..
