Re: Outdated ektachrome???
From: P. J. Alling [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 2005/12/13 Tue AM 05:39:26 GMT To: pentax-discuss@pdml.net Subject: Outdated ektachrome??? I'm trying to decide if it's even worth shooting this stuff. I've got several rolls of 120 size Ektachrome dated 1999. It's all e6 professional and it's been kept refrigerated. Anybody have any experience shooting film this old, what the age effects are, how much, (percentage since the initial speed ratings are all different) to compensate for lost sensitivity, that sort of thing. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I've shot stuff about as old as this that had an unknown to me history. Although I'm sure there would be some differences to fresh film, I could not see anything that made me want to check it against new film. mike - Email sent from www.ntlworld.com Virus-checked using McAfee(R) Software Visit www.ntlworld.com/security for more information
Re: Outdated ektachrome???
If it's been refrigerated, It's probably good. I've shot some very old ektachrome with good results. Paul On Dec 13, 2005, at 12:39 AM, P. J.

Re: Outdated ektachrome???
Same here. If it's been refrigerated it should still be good for quite a while. Bob On Dec 13, 2005, at 6:47 AM, Paul Stenquist wrote: If it's been refrigerated, It's probably good.
