Subject: [Leica] Re: Deterioration of slide images

This whole debate came from a Kodak Tech Bulletin of perhaps 10-15 years
ago. They stated what Tina stated below. That Kodachrome broke down faster
under projection than E6. And that Kodachrome had a much better dark life
than E6. But this would only effect those who run continuous slide shows,
like at promotions or museums or aquariums... whatever... This problem will
not surface with the normal slide show/lecture type of use.
