The film is probably in a cartridge, so once it's rewound and removed from the camera, you should be able to determine what kind of film it is. Quite a few labs still process Ektachrome super 8 and 8mm film. Google turns up a bunch. Only one of those I found can process Kodachrome movie film, but if your film is from the seventies, chances are it's ektachrome.
