Goodbye to Kodachrome-Kodak phasing out its color

Sad to know that Kodak is taking the kodakchrome away. Kodakchrome is a slide film which is rich in color and clarity. It has given life to important occasion and documented historical events since its introduction to the market in 1935 and it is just that finally, phasing out of existence.

Kodak says that supplies of its last batch of slide film which is now being manufactured in Mexico will last until fall. The popularization of digital camera in the world market is killing the sales of kodachrome and Kodak has no way to decide than to let it go.

It's a little dissapointing for the traditional photographer who love challenges of manipulating those analog and mechanical SLR cameras of long ago, that requires adeptness and expertise to play with lights and color provided by knowledge of camera function and brightness and clarity of film. These what make photography more exciting. Your creativity is largely enhance as compare with using the digital cameras.
