The internet said Dmax is a hair salon in Kings Cross, London UK, with "good prices and excellent services". But I do know that Kodachrome is a Paul Simon song off of his third album. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites
Mike Leisegang January 4, 2018 Author Share January 4, 2018 Dermot, in the old days when you pushed film transparency to a radical point, 3 to 4 stops you would - could start to see the DMax of the film showing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites
