Professional Kodachrome 25,
That stuff is great...and if I had money, it would be mine.
I'm currently stuck hunting the backlogs of wholesalers who are offering cold stored expired film for rock bottom prices. I can get a roll for $1.50 in date though.
Actually, is there anyway I can get one roll to try it rather than a brick? Then I could say that I've done it.
Which panoramic camera do you use?

The problem with K25 is you don't know how it was stored or what the results will be. You can't find bricks so one can do a test roll and then have confidence to use. It has become a 'cult' item and the individuals appear to be paying exhorbitant prices from scalpers for it.
I firmly agree that K25 was better than K64 but so was KII better than K25 but they are gone.
I purchased a 100 rolls of recently expired K64 for less than $4/roll shipped and tests showed its was fine and am presently shooting it up. $4/roll for film that will be OK I can handle, absurd prices for film of indeterminate quality so I can say, I use K25, I can't handle.
BTW for 40+ years I have used flash with Kodachromes except Type A with no problems.-Dick
