Lines: 11 There is an article in the September issue of Popular Photography magazine concerning the new Ektachrome 100 slide film. In this article was a short discussion on the longetivity of Ektachrome vs. Kodachrome. It stated that if the proper storage technics are used, i.e. - slides kept at proper temperature in a refrigerator, etc., that Kodachrome does indeed last much longer before fading sets in. But, if they're not stored exactly right, the difference between Kodachrome and Ektachrome is minimal. So, if you're like me and you're using archival slide pages kept in a dark closet, you probably won't see much difference in the longetivity of your slides.
