35mm please. I don't care how out of date!
I'll pay up to 30p a roll, as long as it's C-41 process colour negative.

Within the tube network please, I'll pick up personally in public and pay cash, or go to a workplace, as long as it's in clear public view. Can collect tomorrow, or at the weekend. Need it for Monday, trip to an observatory.


Thanks,
Arien.

Will do!
Off to the Emirates tomorrow to see Arsenal v Wigan, still contemplating whether or not I should take the 650. Reckon I should?

You think?
I don't fancy my Sigma 70-300mm breaking because of some twonk in front of me making a sudden leap! But then again, I do want to take some good photos! Ahhhh. Dilemmas!

I think I probably will though. It's a season ticket seat, my dad's bricklayer's. He's working tomorrow, so we've got his seat and 2 others next to him.

This is gonna sound really stupid, but bear in mind I know nothing about photography, what use is expired film? Surely the date is on there for a reason?

Using out of date film can lead to achieving some Weird images like washed out or blown colours but this doesnt happen all the time as most manufacturers date it way before its expiry date anyway so give or take 8-12 months and its usually ok.
Some have used film from the 50`s and 60`s and they have came out fine. The film i passed onto arien had been kept in the fridge as this prolongs its shelf life, you can go further and freeze it almost indefinatley

I'm gonna experiment a bit with one or two of them. Might put it in the oven for like a minute, and see what I can turn out with that.
