Hi all, I have a few 100ft rolls of 16mm Kodachrome II expired in 1974. I have shot and processed one in the Lomo tank and you can barely see an image, even though I did compensate all that I could by opening the lens diaphragm as much as possible. And it was a very bright day. I did clean the brown coating. I processed it with x-Tol developer, 8 mins. 20º. I would like to push is and see if that way I can get a better image. I guess I will have to run some tests, increasing developing times gradually. Maybe I could also shoot at a slower speed. If I don't get good results in exterior locations then I will use this film to shoot something in the studio where I could have more light. Can anyone give me some suggestions as to how to push-process this film please? Thanks Veronica http://www.veronicaibarrafilms.com/
