    I miss it - I wouldn't go back to Kodachrome, but I do miss it. This was a nice little piece. Thanks so much for sharing it.

    Wonderful short documentary about this iconic Kodak film, all the more poignant now both the film and possibly the Kodak company itself as we knew it, are no more. Also really makes me wish I had shot more Kodachrome, especially recently when it was processed at this fine lab, Dwayne Photo.

    A sad day indeed marking the end of an era when photographers and filmmakers actually had to know how to expose film.

    I shipped so many rolls of Super 8 Kodachrome to Dwayne's. So cool to see the place. Nothing was more exciting than coming home to a package from Dwayne's. Hate that it's gone.

    He says "I'm not sure what we are going to do on the last day of processing, but we are sure going to miss it."

    Does anyone know if they did anything to commemorate it?

    Really cool doc! I for one am really happy we've fully embraced the digital age where you don't wait several days to see what you shot.
