I’ve no idea about lofi other than the odd post I read here and there, but do you lofi shooters ever use expired film for your photos? I’ve come across the following film in work which we no longer require, so could forward it to any one that might have use of it? I can’t guarantee the condition, but the boxes are all either unopened, or the ones that have been opened have the film un-used in the canister. Film is as follows:

– 35mm Konica, ISO 200, 12 exp x4
– 35mm Konica, ISO 200, 24 exp x2
– 35mm Polaroid, ISO 100, 12 exp x3
– 35mm Polaroid ISO 100, 24 exp x1
– 35mm Polaroid ISO 200, 36 exp x1

Expiry dates are nearly all 2004, think a couple are 2002. Maybe they are fit only for the bin?

film is never out of date, shot some medium format i found in blackrock market a few months ago and sent to here to be developed and scanned http://www.processc22.co.uk/ film was marked to be used before 1957 and they where able to process it for me.

No use for it myself I’m afraid, I’m all digital. I did start out in photography using my dads old Konica 35mm SLR, but it started leaking light and the light meter stopped working so I’ve no idea where it even is now. Mind you I haven’t ruled out getting a 35mm, still feel its a chapter I’ve missed out on!

Sent a couple of PM’s there, just went for first come first served I’m afraid but if I come across any more will be sure to let you folks know, might as well go to good use :)

I think my username suggests I’m much more suspicious than I actually am :D
