Re: outdated film
Tue, April 14, 2009 - 10:17 AMUnless you kept it in a freezer, it may have started to get foggy. I wouldn't trust it for anything pro, but if you just want to play around, it's probably still good enough for test/trial shots, etc.

Re: outdated film
Tue, April 14, 2009 - 7:55 PMActually, it can get a bit grainy and that can be cool. I use outdated film all the time. Just keep in mind that it will result in something not quite up to fresh film quality, and it can be fun. While film can get foggy, I personally have only had it get a larger grain structure. Makes for fun shooting, especially when shot artistically and with a Holga or some other toy cam. Just shoot it and see.
