I rang the free Kodak number a few weeks ago and was told about the
withdrawl of Kodachrome from the Australian market and the closure of
Kodachrome processing, any prepaid Kodachrome sent to them will be
passed on to their processing plant in Switzerland. They said other
Kodak films are not affected, I sent a roll of Elitechrome to Kodak
for processing a couple of days ago. The minilab that sent it say
there are no changes with processing it.

Yeah it was the US site that I had been searching for it. The Australian
Kodak site is broken - any place where you can choose film from their
product listing it takes you back to their home page. I have heard people
saying that Kodak have totally stopped doing film in Australia - I don't
know if it is just a rumour or not but a lot of people have told me that. I
did know that a few months ago they stopped doing Kodachrome in Australia,
and the one lab here that could process it no longer does. There's only a
couple of labs in my entire state that do E-6 processing now too - as much
as I hate it to admit it, maybe film is almost dead.
