Re: Expired Film

[Mark Cassino]

last summer I used some Kodak B&W (TMax, Tri-X) that was well over 10 years 
expired.  It had been stored in a refrigerator.  I found it to be fine - I 
upped the developing time slightly, but could not tell the difference 
between it and fresh film.  OTH - the two rolls of High Speed Infared from 
the same vintage did not look good.

I've never used outdated Ilford, but  I'd expect the film you have would be 
fine if it was properly stored.

Hi All,

What exactly happens to film when it expires? At what point is it still safe
to put in your camera? I have a good few rolls of Ilford Delta 100 that
expired in June 2003, can I still use it?
