So a friend of a friend just offered me a few (6+) rolls of kodachrome.

Naturally, he's 6 months late. But that being said, before I tell him they are paperwieghts, does anyone know about processing kodachrome as black and white?

"Since KODACHROME film does not have incorporated dye-forming couplers, processing in any other color process will yield no image. Processing in a B&W negative process will yield a B&W silver image."

Scala develops as a negative as you would process regular black and white negative film.

Scala has official times from Agfa for B&W negative developing in Rodinal. It's how I process all my Scala. Does very well at an EI of 100.
