5 rolls of 120 Kodachrome left --> develop as b&w??

[GaryLH]

I forgot I still had some Kodachrome in the freezer..🙁 wondering if I should try developing as b&w. Anyway, I did a quick search and found this posting on how to develop it for b&w...

Are there any other methods u guys have tried? Is there a better way then to slowly rub off the backing as mentioned in this thread?

Thanks

I admire your persistence, but if it were me, I would sell them on Ebay as collector's items and move on to a new emulsion or sensor.

I've found a roll of exposed KR25-36 in a drawer. Probably from the 1970s/early 80s. Will read any more responses with interest!

Lol.. I really only shoot b&w these days anyway for film. Which is why I forgot I had this stuff in the freezer along w/ some Fuji 120 color. But I thought this would be kind of fun.

I don't use the developer they mentioned here. So I need to go out and buy some.. Was hoping others could comment on other methods or developers they have tried. Anyway, if nothing else I will give it a go toward end of next month... Tell u my results.

I have hc110 and Rodinal around.
