Today, Kodak in Switzerland informed about going on to process Kodachrome 40 films until end of September 2006.

Woohoo! Thanx Juergen, you've made my day

I was somewhat worried what to do anout my 200ft rolls of K25 and K40. I have an ongoing project I will only be able to finish in June 2006, so september is perfect for me!

BTW, in schmalfilm 05/2005 I've read that in the next issue you plan something on the Beaulieu Superdrive? Do you need any user experiences? Photos?

Regards,

Alex

The Non-Super8-Cartridge-films (Double-Super8, 16mm, 35mm-Slides, ...) aren't affected by Kodak's production-/processing-stop of the Super8-K40... that's at least what Kodak's saying... . Despite this it looks like Kodak will close that lab in Switzerland?!?

This is indeed great news!
The last info I had from Swiss lab was MAY 2006.
So, 4 months more is 4 months! Another kodachrome summer!
GREAT!
