Kodachrome, the oldest camera film ever made became history last Thursday when it was developed for the final time. On 22 June 2009, Kodak announced the end of Kodachrome production, citing declining demand. Many Kodak and independent laboratories once processed Kodachrome, but only one Kodak certified facility remained in the world after the announcement: Dwayne's Photo in Parsons, Kansas, USA.
On 14 July 2010 it was announced that the last produced roll of Kodachrome was developed for photographer Steve McCurry on assignment for National Geographic.
