Found some old stock


Recommended Posts

I know there are a few threads on this already, sorry in advance :-)

 

I found 400ft of sealed 16mm Fujifilm F-500 in my closet. I'm guessing this stock is from somewhere around 2007-2009

The stock has been in a dry (room temperature) closet for at least 4 years.

 

Will shooting with this give me an image at all :-) ? I don't mind if it gives a blue tint, or if I have to over-expose it. I'm just wondering the chances of it being completly ruined.

 

Thoughts?

I just find it amusing that if the film stock would even be exposable was a question ;-)

 

Film is not as fragile as that, I have shot film from the 80's and it made images and some of those were pretty great. We developed some B&W from 1972 a year or two ago and it was foggy but it made interesting images.

 

I don't think the hard drives we use today will work in 5-7 years.
