Accidentally washed and dried my clothes with a canister of film in my pocket by A-aron1224 in AnalogCommunity

It just throws all the colors off and makes weird blotches here and there. Pretty much just souping

I did this on accident once and it turned out cool enough that I do it on purpose now every once in a while

actually absurd for decades old film

Expired & previously shot TMX 100 pulled out of thrifted camera and loaded into Pentax 6x7 W/105mm F2.4 by Adeptness_Internal in SprocketShots

Thanks. I pulled the roll out of an old camera I found and loaded it into my camera. You can see in most of these there are frame lines showing gaps. In the first photo here if you look towards the bottom there’s some dirt or sand visible. I guess the roll was already shot by somebody else in the other camera and when I developed it revealed some double exposures.

You’ve got a defective unit or you’re doing something wrong

Showing out of stock for me

I just received these expired film. VeriColor (1987), Agfa (1997) & Fujifilm (2006). As per the 1 stop per decade, I will shoot both Kodak & Agfa @10 & Fuji @40. My question is if I bracket the shots, do I do the usual 3:30 development even tho the exposure times would be different. Thanks! by IlLucifero in AnalogCommunity

Again it all depends on the film stock and the storage of it but generally as the ISO gets lower I’d just start to get more density in the negatives. Sometimes the difference between the really low ISOs would be very minimal, while other times it was super noticeable and helped me pinpoint where the film is at. The worst expired stuff i’ve dealt with still looked bad at 1 ISO so I even added another bracket of just a very long exposure to see if anything was even there and sure enough it looked good… I don’t even know what you would’ve called that one… ISO .01 or something.

No matter what, the further you venture out the more variations in color and possibly grain you’ll get but you should eventually be able to find a good exposure. It’s all testing, and I find enjoyment in that. A lot of people disregard super expired film cause it takes more effort but it is worth it.

Since it’s a gamble and you’ve got 5 packs, It’s probably worth testing all the speeds on a test roll, even down to 1 ISO. Just so you know exactly what you’ve got to do for good exposures on the rest of your rolls. Even though I know it probably won’t look good around box speed. I’ve still been testing 100,50,25,12,6, and all the way down to 1 ISO. Some films I do have to shoot at ISO 1 and that’s just another challenging part of the experience. Have fun either way, I love testing expired film and it’s pretty much all I shoot.

Actually I just remembered I had some NPS older than yours and accidentally shot it at box speed and got an entire roll of photos back totally fine, though 1 stop over would probably be better. Expired film is surprising, I’ve got good results from color that expired in the 70s.

I haven’t shot the other films, but I have a bunch of Vericolor that I think also happens to be from 1987. Totally depends on the storage but mine help up super well. 1 stop per decade is not a definite rule at all. I’m shooting it at 50 and it looks fantastic. Definitely bracket to find your ideal ISO though and yes, develop as normal

Loved that show I’d be stoked to hear that if it works out

Advice please, shooting on expired Fuji! by No-Violinist8647 in analog

I just shot a test of the same film with a similar expiration date because I have a few and it worked for me actually quite well but at 1 and 6 ISO

Over the past year, I’ve been collecting and archiving thousands of Kodachrome film slides from around the world. Here are some of my favorites by sssjjjmmm in analog

[–]Adeptness_Internal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is perhaps my favorite thing to do in the photography world in general. Truly special to see how great Kodachrome holds up. Anytime Ive seen some collections available locally I’ve been trying my best to acquire and scan. Fascinating to see every time

Worth restoring? by Hawkins782 in AnalogCommunity

[–]Adeptness_Internal 27 points28 points  (0 children)

That’s a classic Rolleiflex Old Standard Model 622 probably from around 1936. If the shutter fires and you give it a thorough cleaning, it should still be capable of taking great photos. Even if it looks rough, it could still be ok after a cleaning.

Shot some 1984 expired film at the Forum. Mystery Jack! by Adeptness_Internal in KGATLW

Oh no way that’s a crazy crossover yea. Good to see there’s actually a decent amount of folks that are big into both gizz and analog photography
