Review: Another reviewer indicates that Kodachrome 25 film is fast film. This is not accurate information. Kodachrome 25 is very slow slide film and requires slow shutter speeds or wide apertures or both. So why buy it? Because it's one of the finest grain, sharpest films ever made. It is best used with a tripod or a powerful flash. It lends itself to serious shooting, but not snapshots. It's a professional-type film. Kodak has been threatening to discontinue this film. That would be a tragic loss. Some of today's finest nature photographs are still made with Kodachrome 25.

Review: Contrary to the Editorial Review, this is not a low light high speed film. It is just the opposite.Due to it very slow speed, this slide film is for well lit or flash situations. But this is a wonderful film! It has perhapse the highest contrast and finest grain of any film. It sets the standard! If you want a film that will deliver the most accurate color rendition of a well lit subject, this is the film of choice.

Summary: A darn shame
Review: Kodak recently discontinued this film. This is without a doubt the best slide film ever made. The color dyes last for decades of projection. I am very disapointed as there is no good alternative.

Summary: Finest Grain Slide Film Available
Review: Recently Kodak has threatened to discontinue this splendid slide film. Hopefully, it won't carry out on this threat since Kodachrome 25 is the finest grain 35mm slide film ever made. The colors are vivid, without being excessively so, along with superb contrast and sharpness. If you took a photograph with a tripod mounted 35mm camera, you could easily have an enlargement made that would rival in quality almost any other color slide image made by a medium format camera. Since it is very slow film, Kodachrome 25 should be used either in very bright sunlight, with a tripod mounted camera, or both. This film is best suited for landscapes or other scenes that are lit by bright sunlight. It's a classic slide film, but still the very best with regards to contrast, sharpness and resolution.
