It's worth a try for some home movies, wouldn't try anything serious that you would be unhappy with zero results. European Kodachrome includes processing. Send it to Kodak Lab in Switzerland, their phone no. is (00) 41 21 631 0589

If it's not processed paid, it's £7... don't know Euros.

Whether it's good or not largely depends on its age and how it was stored. I'm sure you'll get something, but the color may not be perfect.

K25 is modern Kodachrome, so it can be processed normally (unlike older Kodachromes that can only be done in B&W now). As for where to get it done, you've got two options: Dwayne's in Kansas (k-14movies.com), or Kodak in Switzerland.

If it's processed paid (Where was it bought? There in France, or somewhere else?), then you've already got processing from Kodak. I don't know the address you need to send it to there, but I'm sure someone will be along with it.
