I shoot mostly expired film and this video is spot on. For anyone reading this, STAY AWAY from old Ektachrome...unless you enjoy torturing yourself like I do. One caveat though, I have consistently gotten very good results with expired Fujichrome and AGFAchrome. It seems they hold up much better than Kodak's slide film.

That's interesting. I haven't shot fujichrome but i've gotten my hands on some expired provia and fuji astia films and they turned out really nice

Nice advice sir! I would make one suggestion - if using expired slide film, -don’t- use the “over expose by 1 stop per decade” rule, as while it’s a great thing to do with negative films, it seldom works with expired slide film. Instead, use the box speed when setting exposure when using slide film and you’ll get the best possible results.. which might not be great.. but it will be much better than over exposing an already limited latitude film. I’m an old guy (63) and have learned quite a bit over the years. I love shooting expired film! Surprises on every frame! Happy filming!

Thanks! I've also found that shooting expired slide film at box speed tends to work best

I shot 35 year expired Fuji Velvia in a pinhole camera and the results were excellent. All of my best results have been with low ISO slide film. Since I shoot with a pinhole camera, I find that slide film is much more forgiving on proper exposure than people say.

I’ve been shooting a lot more expired slide film and I think my stance on it has changed slightly.

I have some Kodachrome 64,expired in 2007. I know it’s going to be black and white but it’s cool. I bought 5 rolls off eBay and they have been in the freezer for 4 years. I have a roll out now defrosting for a couple of days before I have to use it.

Did you end up getting this roll back?

Great video, compact and very informative at the same time. I love collecting and shooting expired film and am especially obsessed with rare and discontinued black and white films.

That's great what rare ones do you have with you?

@@filmstockreel Among other expired films I already shot some Eastman 5302, Panatomic-X, Technical Pan and Kodak Film Sample 5226 (possibly early Royal Gold 100). In my freezer there's some Kodak 4-X, Panatomic-X (expired in 1943), Kodak Photomicrography 2483, Eastman 5360 "Red Stuff", Kodak Aerecon II 3404, Kodak Recording film 2475 and much more...it's no hoarding if you're a collector, right? 😅

I have 3 rolls of Kodachrome 64 120 in my freezer.. I think that I am screwed.

@filmstockreel 8 ай бұрын

I believe so sir. Kodachrome as far as i know can't be developed in color anymore. There are some places that will develop it in black and white but it might cost more than its worth

@@filmstockreel Possibly, since Kodachrome's base was a 3 layer black and white film with the colors filtered in at different stages, but if it still takes the K-14 process, that could prove difficult. I managed a camera store with a large photo lab and a new tech accidentally ran several rolls of Kodachrome 64 through the C-41 film processor and that was a nightmare to clean up! Tha film boxes look just fine sitting with the vintage folding cameras! LOL!
