Optimum Exposure of Sound Tracks on Kodachrome Films

Robert C. Lovick

Low-distortion sound tracks on Kodachrome films can be obtained with any conventional exposure method. The best possible sound reproduction requires exposure with light of color quality which correlates the speeds of the individual emulsions when developed to silver sulfide rather than to dyes. Poor sound quality in the past has often been the result of the failure to recognize the critical color quality requirement of the light which exposes the sound-track portion of the film.
