Ektachrome is a type of color reversal film, known for its vibrant colors and fine grain. Originally introduced by Eastman Kodak in the 1940s, it allows photographers to produce slides that can be viewed directly without the need for printing. Ektachrome is popular among both amateur and professional photographers for its ability to capture rich details and accurate color reproduction. In 2019, Kodak announced the revival of Ektachrome film, responding to the growing interest in analog photography. The film is available in various formats, including 35mm and medium format, catering to different photographic needs and preferences.
