Film at Daytona
« on: March 03, 2016, 11:29:06 PM »
A pro takes a bunch of expired film out of the closet and remembers what was (is) so great about it.

I hope next time he will shoot some new film. Old stock won't keep the machines turning up more new stuff.  ::)

I haven't had chance to view the film, yet, but will do so this weekend.

Rafael, you make a very good point - one that I was contemplating yesterday evening.  I've been buying up expired film stock as and when I've come across it - mainly because it seemed like a good thing to do.  However, for the foreseeable future, I'll be concentrating what money I have for film on new stock from Ilford, Kodak and, maybe, some 35mm Bergger.
