I was gifted a haul of expired film from a friend of mine who was a pro in the 90s in Japan. He had about 20 rolls of Fuji Provia and Fuji Velvia 50 and 100 and a few others, in both a mix of 35mm and 120. I shot all the Velvia 120 and Provia fairly quick, and still have about half of the 35mm Provia in the freezer. The craziest thing was this - most of it was expired around 2003 or 2004. It was stored in his loft here in the UK for nearly 20 years - so hot summers, cold winters. So in theory, it spent half of those 20 years in really hot temperatures (well, way hotter than film is designed for, as we do sometimes get hot 30 or 35 deg C weather here in the UK). With it being slide film, I did not do the "ISO boosting" that we do for negatives. And do you know what - pretty much every frame came out looking like new film photos. The Provia didnt fare quite as well as the Velvia. But only the trained eye would notice. They looked great.

That’s awesome - glad you got such good results man!

[@Poverello2001]

I like the results you got with this film. The color shift adds an unusual character to the shots.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Yes, a little strange, but I kinda dig it.

[@dave-hf1uk]

Loving the sunset vibes you've got some really cool photos and great tips on shooting expired film too. I shot an expired roll of Konica 200 one stop over exposed a couple of years and the colours were very unpredictable all over the place but still fun. I have several more Konica 100 and 200 to shoot and if they are half ss good as yours ill be happy

[@roadmasterz]

You are getting much better pics with expired film than I could get using my DSLR! Of course, a lot of mine was I couldn't compose my pics very well. Would there be any chance that you would be willing to conduct a class on some of your technics?

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks - Truth be told, I don’t have any formal training. If I have acquired any skill, it comes down to 2 simple concepts - Point your camera at interesting things and put in the reps. Practice may not make perfect, but taking a lot of photographs can definitely help you develop your eye. If there is a third concept that has helped my development as a photographer, it is to use uncomplicated cameras -I like cameras that just get out of your way and just let you do your thing. Thanks for taking the time to watch.

[@AlexLuyckxPhoto]

That's some funky colour shifts! Also that NARC Ebay store is dangerous! Good thing it doesn't have a lot of B&W in large quantities!

[@theoldcameraguy]

Yeah, Nuno gifted me a bunch of cool stocks I’d never even seen before

[@nunocruz1282]

Alex if with you need a big lot of expired Bw let me know . Nuno from Narcexpiredfilm

[@focustiltphoto]

Great shots. I love the color shift that it has going on. Certainly provides a special look.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks

[@paulcookphotography]

Whoa...that was straight out of a Prince film, Purple Rain, maybe 🤔 Actually, the first couple of images were a bit of a shock to the eyes but became quite pleasant by the end. Really enjoyed that Dave! Have a great week!

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks for watching man - Hope you have a great week too!

[@thevoiceman6192]

These came out nice for expired film.

[@nunocruz1282]

Again thanks for the amazing video and review of one of my expired films. I liked the colours shifts. Konica can be unpredictable.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks for all the great film Nuno!

[@ErichMielke-jg4ew]

The photos are wonderful and I like the colour shift. The whole photos plus music give off Twin Peaks vibes - I guess this shift would be great for motion picture film to set the atmosphere and timing. Great stuff in this instance.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks - I dig the color shift too

[@maf421]

Looks to be a slight shift to magenta here. They should make a Magic 8 Ball for expired film. Nice results none the less.

[@basstubert]

I like it, I like it a lot! To me, the extra warmth and end-of-day/golden hour vibes really add something to these images. Excellent stuff.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks! Overall, I liked the way they turned out

[@samzphotos23]

Beautiful photos, interesting places from American small towns. Charming! Suggest you to do a video with Adox Scala 50 (D-76 or cross) and FPP Blue Ultra!

[@theoldcameraguy]

I don’t have either of those stocks, but I did shoot some Jazzy Blues film a while back - it’s a bit like that FPP stock.

[@moot6794]

Not bad! You could def correct that color cast in Photoshop or Lightroom, no problem

[@aengusmacnaughton1375]

I have some of the same type of film -- looks like from 2000 -- have not shot it yet. OK -- now to search for the nearest Big Boy!!!!

[@comfortablyblind6853]

Interesting hue. Some of the sky shots were a deep blue, some were that funky pink. Almost apocalyptical color. I kinda like it. I think I'd hang a few. Great video as always. Thanks.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks for watching.

[@AndrewWaltonPhotography]

Dave, I'm liking the results with the magenta colour shift. I have a roll of Centuria Super 200 that expired in 2005. It came with a camera I bought on ebay, but that reads dx coded film. So I thought I might run it through my Fujica STX1 instead, a camera I trust and can do as you mention, expose it at ISO 100 and adjust it by a stop. I have no idea how this film has been stored in the past.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Overexposing by a stop sounds like a good plan - Thanks for watching Andy.

[@sarasnyder1086]

I love your videos so much! I have a roll of Kodak 400 from 1997 that I plan on putting in a trusty Canon ML point & shoot. 1.9 lens and it lets me set ISO. What do you think about setting ISO at 50? As you say, what can go wrong?! Cheers!

[@markattardo]

Great results! I received 2 rolls of portra 800 that expired in 2018 with a recent purchase. I've been on the fence about using it as I have no idea how it was stored. Seems like it might be worth a try.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Definitely worth a try!

[@SinaFarhat]

Nice! Did you do any colour shift corrections?

[@theoldcameraguy]

No - this was as is, no correction

[@ViaOjo]

I love them - for me they didn’t disappoint……

[@theoldcameraguy]

I was mostly OK with the results too.

[@aengusmacnaughton1375]

Big Boy never looked so good!!!

[@samhardy2038]

I had that camera new. Wish I still did. Dumb me.

[@theoldcameraguy]

I’ve been shooting it more recently - Very capable camera

[@acecreates]

Expired film.... brave man!!!
