Wish I had watched this video before I shot my first roll of expired film. I only read about the results of what the film could look like and didn't do enough research. My entire roll was completely underexposed and wasted. Glad I fond your channel - Subbed here and ill be going to follow your Etsy shop as well!

[@grahambumpas3213]

You have explained everything better than anyone I have watched so far and I’ve watched a lot. I’m only 2 minutes into this video and you have already answered several questions I’ve been looking for thanks for the video! Great work!

[@fatpanda73]

So excited to be a member of EFC! I'm very new to film photography and you explain everything with expired film very clearly. Can't wait to see more!

[@kaeptnkrunch9212]

Congratulations to your first video. Cannot wait to see more ☺️

[@David-ov3ej]

Great video! You do a really good job explaining these things. Hyped for more videos like that.

[@fustigate314159]

Thanks for explaining this. Everyone says "one stop" without explaining the easiest way to achieve that (setting the ISO).

[@TheRetroRoadshow]

I just bought a beautiful old film camera this past weekend, a Minolta X-700. A kind neighbor gave me a couple rolls of Kodak 100 color film which expired in 2005, and I've had a blast running around San Francisco, California and the greater Bay Area taking pics this weekend. I'm really excited to get the film developed, but I'm also wishing I'd seen this video first - I didn't know about adjusting the ISO on the camera 'one stop per decade!' Oh well, useful info for my next film adventure. Thanks for this great video!

Cool video. Looking forward to see more videos like this.

[@najtrows]

Found three rolls of film that expired in 2006 at my dads. Thanks to this video I'll give them a shot (hehehe) before giving up hope. Appreciate the video

Amazing product loved the video

[@themightychippy3756]

I was halfway through the video and was going to ask about slide film....and then you covered it! Cracking vid, easy to listen too and very informative, earned a sub

[@ExpiredFilmClub]

That's awesome to hear, thanks so much!

[@JuliusTheDetective]

@@ExpiredFilmClubHey, i’m not so good at english, but good at reading it and writing it. So i want to Ask you, What iso should i have on my expired film? the film expired in 1997, and has 200 iso. If you could Help it would be awesome:)

[@JuliusTheDetective]

@@ExpiredFilmClubalso when your Done shooting with your film, can you leave it to a modern film shop or do you need it to expose it yourself?

[@Lewis_Treff97]

Yeah I heard I needed to shoot a lower iso when I dropped my new roll and expired roll to get developed. I learned my expired roll of Kodak 400 that expired in 2006 that I shot on iso400 came out underexposed although some shots came out quite well underexposed. I've got another 2 rolls of the stuff to use and will run a lower iso next time.

[@adrianguntherkeedle6860]

Good information. Well put together video. Well done 🎉🎉

[@philhodgkinson1460]

Nice video thanks just half way through some expired fuji film...just using half the box speed so see how it goes I read somewhere if you are a pro only use expired film in ratio once every 5 normal films seems a good rule so you don't get too despondent with results.. Cheers...

[@vinyong88]

Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your video.

[@no_spicy_ramen6264]

Hello miles, i now know more about shooting, you can explaint it so good. If i am able to buy a membership i will buy one, thanks again for getting me into shooting with 35mm camaras

[@elvikote]

I like that u use vintage lens for the video too 🔥✌️

[@racerjoe88]

Been following on tiktok for quite a while and now I just stumbled along this because I found a bunch of rolls of Kodak gold from 2004

[@nemarvel]

@4:51 Gorgeous shot

[@paigestewart5570]

Great video! I’ve almost never touched film before, and I want to shoot some old expired film from the early 2000’s. Your video answered my questions!

[@iscaylis]

How did they turn out? I also have some early 2000's film

[@floga10]

I also have 2000s film I’m worried it won’t come out well

[@ElliotShayle]

Wow, this is a very well made video, *and* your first one! Great stuff, and great photos 😁. What's your opinion on this piece of advice? I've heard some people say that due to the colour degradation, it's best to think of expired colour film as black & white whilst you're shooting, and then restore colours in editing if desired. I found one of my grandpa's old rolls of expired Ektachrome from the 80's or 90's, and I *really* don't wanna screw up my only chance to shoot that roll!

[@ExpiredFilmClub]

Thanks so much! That’s actually a really interesting point & not one I’ve thought of very much before… but it could be a good way of looking at it, especially with old slide film which can be much more unpredictable

[@r0_dartk]

Can you also make a vid for someone who has point and shoot camera??

[@iscaylis]

I have some rolls of expired (2003) colour 800 ISO film, do you think it would still be okay with night photography? I (or rather, my light meter) tends to overexpose to begin with, so I'm afraid of wasting these rolls

[@babamcjyb4582]

Congrats From indonesia

[@clairelou_]

Thanks this is great, really useful. What app do you use for gaging the level of overexposure?

[@ExpiredFilmClub]

Thanks so much! It's literally just called 'light meter' on the app store :)

[@user-tu9lm3lp2n]

I have another idea,i have a old polaroid land 350,from 1972,and ,and some film,expired 10/2006.shouldt i try also more light exposure ,to make photos? There are two settings for shutter speed,300,and 3000,and pre setting,bright sun only,or outdoors for the 3000 shutter speed.i want try outdoor,for 3000 speed only.

[@mvagusta6757]

I have 10 year old infrared efke 820. Is infrared film different to normal film when it is expired? What should my camera settings be? Thank you.

[@brandonwilliams2799]

I shot some expired fujifilm (unknown age) at box speed would it be fine to have it developed at double the rated speed (eg 100 at 200) or should I just have it developed at box speed

[@dxminik7]

Just a quick question, if I shoot an 10 yr old expired 200 iso film at 100 iso e.g, do I still develop it at 200 iso?

[@rangersmith4652]

So, if I have film whose expiration date I don't know, but it's been around since the 90s at the latest, I should shoot it at the lowest ASA possible? Or should I give up on it and save my money?

[@Xplorography]

I recently shot some 2011 velvia at box speed, still waiting for my film back, hope it comes back okay 🤞🏻

[@elin8546]

How'd it go?

[@Xplorography]

@@elin8546 honestly couldn't tell the difference from the in date stuff

[@CoolCademMAnimates-fz1ui]

What if I don’t know when it expired because it was already inside the camera when I bought the camera 💀💀💀 It looks like it could have been put in there between the 1910s and the 1930s and the camera had an F-stop control between F/11 to F/32. Do I just automatically set it to F/11? Shutter speed control is standard (idk what specific speed), bulb and time.

[@stuartconnelly5397]

What is the formula for expired film. Ie 1 year, 2 year, 3 year etc? I have some expired film that is 5 year expired for example.

[@yousefsemary2154]

this was very good I just wanted to know how you digitalize the images

[@ExpiredFilmClub]

I scan them in - tutorial on that coming soon :)

[@sedricsuringa5110]

i am using an automatic point and shoot. ive read online that "pushing" an expired film during development would ruin the colors... and pushing means increasing the ISO rather than decreasing. let's say I have an expired film at box speed of 400. if i pushed it 2 stops in film development, it would make the film iso 1600 so it's going to be less sensitive to light, effectively underexposing the film???? i'm so confused. plss help

[@mthrdxthrd6715]

i wanna ask some questions, i have a bunch of my father's fujifilm roll film super 400, i guess it is already expired coz maybe it from 90s. if i sell it how much it would be??

[@emmyrose4458]

Does this also apply to black and white film?

[@cheetoproscheetopros]

So if I overexpose by 1 stop myself I don’t need my lab to push the film?

[@LetFreedomSPK]

so just to clarify you PULLED it 2 stops to compensate for the sensitivity and when you developed it you developed it back at 200 ISO or developed it at PUSHED 800 iso or at the pulled stop?

[@linusfotograf]

I believe pushing and pulling is something you do when developing the film. When shooting it you over or underexpose.

[@XYZ-bi9eb]

if you shoot expired film on a cloudy day, the images look very grainy. try shooting it on a sunny day for better results.

[@casamino]

What kind of backpack is that? Kovered?

[@klewis7567]

Hi there - thanks for the vid. Question - what's the rule of thumb if you are unaware of the expiration date (you don't have the original film box)??

[@yoepvh9250]

Try and see if you can see anything on the roll of film itself, sometimes there is some info on the part where the film comes out of. If not: I'd just set the iso to 100 and hope it turns out okay

[@fustigate314159]

If it's not TOO old, there might be a barcode (not the DX, but a barcode) for the batch or lot. If there's a number with it, try finding a site that has some of those lists those with the year(s) released. Otherwise, bracket your shots by progressively overexposing a stop. +1, +2, etc.

[@negativespaceboys]

Hi! love ur thing eversince in IG, but qn though. For e6 film. Do you still do the same math. 1 stop per decade? or u keep it at boxspeed?

[@ExpiredFilmClub]

Hey, E6 is more complicated as it expires slower and so you don't need to add as much exposure. I try to address it in the second half of this video, but I'd still over-expose slightly if I were you

[@vamthenabi]

hi i am new to films. i have a question about the 2 stops in developing it... do i request for it in my developers to have it 2 stops even if i overexposed it by 2 stops in the ISO? ps. I am only using a toy camera so i dont have a button for overexposing a film...

[@raptor1jec]

All C-41 color films are developed for the same time, so no it doesn't matter just shoot it a couple stops slower like he says. For B&W, I believe you'll want to develop it for the speed on the box. The slower shooting speed is making up for the reduction in sensitivity.

[@SoulEater090]

Which national trust location was this?

[@tadi7051]

Did you service this canon? This squeak sound is terrible.

[@codiecrieg2480]

hello can i ask, did You try puh expired film ? Thank You for sec while answear. PS: sorry for my englih

[@troibltn3535]

I came across some film that expired a few months ago, would i shoot normally or still overexpose?

[@ExpiredFilmClub]

I always tend to over-expose film, even sometimes fresh film, so I'd add a stop if I were you :)

[@user-tu9lm3lp2n]

I have a pair of agfa hdc plus iso 200 color Film, expired in july 2001.shouldt i give it a try,shooting, and develop that film?

[@ExpiredFilmClub]

Yeah definitely! I’d shoot at ISO 50 & outside on a sunny day if you want to be safe

[@user-tu9lm3lp2n]

You mean, i should ajust the iso setting on my camera to 50? (I asked some friends,if they found some expired film, i want it,before they put it in the waste Container

[@user-tu9lm3lp2n]

I got a canon ae 1 ,and restored it myself,with a New Set of lightseals,including also a New mirror damper, works perfect. I think,i Fell in love,with my New restored canon ae 1 camera. It's so relaxing,making photos,with it.greetings from germany.

[@theasiangod]

So if I have 30 year old 100 ISO film I should put the ISO to 25? And that’ll count for 2 stops?

[@theasiangod]

Also I have a ae-1 program film camera

[@theasiangod]

What other changes should I change as well?

[@idostuffofficial]

what do you do if it's in the middle of the decade?

[@ExpiredFilmClub]

Always over expose as opposed to under expose, so I’d round it to the next ISO stop

[@idostuffofficial]

@@ExpiredFilmClub ok so because it expired in 2008 and it’s 200 speed I shoot it like it was 50?

[@kevin-parratt-artist]

The added background noise (music? 😳) while you are talking is so annoying that I need to turn it off. 😖
