I am in Film Paradise

[photojazz54]

I am currently enrolled in a darkroom photography class and last week my teacher gave me two boxes (total 100) that contained some:

35mm
ILFORD FP4 PLus 125
ILFORD FP4
ILFORD PANF 135
Kodak Extacolor Pro Gold 1000
Kodak TMAX P3200
Kodak Professional T-Max 100
AGFA APX 100
AGFA APX 25

120mm
KOdak Vericolor II (C41)
Kodak Ektachrome 100HC
AGFA AGFA Color XRX 100
Kodak Porta 160 VC

Some of the film has expiration dates of 2002 and 2005 but it was keep frozen and I immediately put in back in the fridge.

I am in the process of searching the web for examples and other info, but I welcome any input from the Photocamel family.

Thanks

I love Ilfords line of film. Alas I don't shoot film anymore. Have tons of fun with it. Show us your results.

Will do Bunny N. My day will start early tommorow as I want to shoot up a coulpe of rolls of B&W and develope them before class at 5:00 pm ....

That's pretty cool. Now you need to get to shooting! The film should still be just fine since it was frozen. I've had some film in the fridge that is over 10 years old and it still works and develops like new.

That's quite a variety.

I've been partial to Ilford's B&W products for many years, especially the Pan F. Kept frozen, all should be just fine to use. You might browse the internet for descriptive information about the various emulsions you listed -- that will give you a heads up on the uses you may want to apply them to.

Have fun.

Latinbob - Thanks for the reply!

Fast Eddie - you are right...The US Army MWR is shutting down all the darkrooms and my photo teacher wanted this stuff to og to a good home...me...

I am researching each brand, as you recommended. Going out today and shoot some ILFORD as I have used it before.

When you post the B&W shots (hopefully soon) please tell us the development details and how you converted to digital. Thanks.


Cheers/Mike
