Those shots were copied from the CD that came with the film processing. When I come across the slides or negatives (can't recall which I used for them) I will set up my bellows and slide copier, and shoot them with the K-1. I've done so with a bunch of other slides and negatives, with pretty good results. It is time consuming, and after making the digital copy I then have to make a pass through Photoshop to restore faded colors, but it is worth it in the end.
Here are a couple I shot in Portland, back in the 1980's, on Kodachrome, and recently copied with the K5IIs. The second one looks a bit out of focus, so I might try a second round to see if I can get a sharper result.
