美最后一家柯达冲洗店停止收件 胶卷成历史

　　With the final roll of Kodachrome film developed in Kansas on Thursday, the widely-lauded quality color film has become a history。

　　Created in 1935, Kodachrome film is renowned for its exceptional rendering of colour, vivid images and archival longevity. For many years, it was the preferred brand for print media。

　　However, it is difficult to process, requiring expert handlers, and Dwayne's Photo in Kansas is the sole remaining developer. In 2009, Kodak announced it was discontinuing the iconic film after competition from digital cameras caused a large sales decline。

　　The last roll was shot by National Geographic photographer Steve McCurry, who shot the 36 exposures in New York, Kansas and as far as India. Then he hand-delivered the last roll to Dwayne's Photo earlier this year。

　　据英国广播公司30日报道，最后一卷柯达胶卷于本周四在堪萨斯冲洗完毕，宣告了该优质彩色胶卷时代的终结。

　　诞生于1935年的柯达彩色胶卷以其优异的显色性、生动的成像以及归档寿命闻名于世。许多年来，它都是平面媒体的优先选择。

　　然而，其难以冲洗，需要专人操作，最终只剩下美国堪萨斯州的杜威恩摄影公司一家冲洗商。2009年，由于受到数码照相机的冲击销售量下滑，柯达宣布停产该彩色胶卷。

　　据了解，最后一卷胶卷由《国家地理》杂志摄影师史蒂夫．麦克里使用，他在纽约、堪萨斯甚至远赴印度拍摄了36张照片，随后于今年早些时候亲手交给了杜威恩摄影公司。
