Slide film still made (E-6)

E-6 is the process for colour slide film: reversal film, which gives a positive transparency rather than a negative. 5 E-6 films are listed as still made.

Older slide films were made for other chemistry — Kodachrome for K-14, early Ektachrome for E-4 — and cannot be developed as E-6; they are on their own pages, marked with the process they need.

2 E-6 kits for home development have published times, listed below with the time at each dilution and temperature given for it.
