I have this hare-brained idea to rescue Kodachrome colours from undeveloped film. Develop it according to the K14 process, but without any dye couplers. (The dye couplers are problematic to find today.) Instead, add these steps: 6b - dry the film 6c - scan it in infrared. This is the YELLOW colour channel. 9b - dry the film 9c - scan it in infrared. This is the YELLOW + CYAN colour channel. 11b - dry the film 11c - scan it in infrared. This is the YELLOW + CYAN + MAGENTA colour channel. 17b - scan it in visible light. This is the luma information. The luma will be much higher resolution and contrast than the chroma (Yellow+Cyan+Magenta) scans, because the infrared scans are made before the film was fixed. Together though, they might be pretty decent looking. K14 - proces: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-14_process https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-14_process
