'''35 mm slides''' came on film rolls of the same size and shape as [[35 mm negatives]], designed to fit the same cameras, but the pictures on them came out "positive" instead of "negative" so that they could be projected directly from the film onto a screen. Usually, after developing, the film is cut into separate pictures which are each mounted in cardboard so they can be inserted into slots of slide projectors (including carousels which can hold many slides for sequential projection).

For many years (from 1935 to 2009), Kodachrome was a very popular brand of color slide film, memorialized in [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZpaNJqF4po song]. Alas, like Paul Simon's mom, Kodak did eventually take Kodachrome away, discontinuing the film in 2009. On December 30, 2010, the last photo lab in the world with the capacity to develop Kodachrome (requiring special processes and chemicals not found in normal photo labs) ceased this service. There are reportedly ways of developing Kodachrome in black-and-white only that can be performed in normal photo labs, but as Simon sang, "Eveything looks worse in black-and-white."

Ontology

35 mm slides came on film rolls of the same size and shape as 35 mm negatives, designed to fit the same cameras, but the pictures on them came out "positive" instead of "negative" so that they could be projected directly from the film onto a screen. Usually, after developing, the film is cut into separate pictures which are each mounted in cardboard so they can be inserted into slots of slide projectors (including carousels which can hold many slides for sequential projection).

For many years (from 1935 to 2009), Kodachrome was a very popular brand of color slide film.
