That is a good suggestion thank you.

Thank you for the pointers. They are very useful for my future attempts.

One thing I should have done, and didn't in my enthusiasm, was to make a note of the settings for each shot I took. I shall do that with the next film, and get the negatives, so I have a better idea of where I went wrong, or, hopefully, right.

Here are another two shots from the roll. The landscape shot is third to last on the roll and the last two shots were even worse with a much pinker cast to them. The teddy shots were in the middle of the roll.

I had used Filmdev: https://filmdev.co.uk/ for the developing and opted for the small scan in tiff format: Small 1545px x 1024px as I just wanted to get an idea of how wrong I had gone, and I knew that I had gone wrong on most of the frames, though to be honest I thought the teddy bear shots I...

I had intended to get the negatives back for future rolls, but just didn't realise it was necessary for this sort of test. I had assumed the scan would give me the results of my experiment.

I always find out these things after the case, sadly! At least I know for future trials.

I used a company called Filmdev for the developing. They got good reviews: https://filmdev.co.uk/

Thank you for the input. Unfortunately, I can't check the negatives as I didn't see the point of paying the cost to get them sent to me as I knew it was just a test run. Obviously, with your input I now do know why it would have been a good idea! I just got the smallest resolution tiff sent to...

Bought a b&w and a colour film so now I need to decide what to photograph and then compare results. Thanks for your input.

Yes it was in an airtight wrapper, but no idea where it was stored. I shall see what happens on the next lot of film I shoot. I shall use a light meter and the finder and see how they compare. Thanks for your input.

Thank you for your response. In the landscape photos there was a very different colour shift - three other photos that followed on from the two above had a pinky hue. What would cause that? I had it on auto-exposure mode on the AE-II finder which is supposed to be very accurate. Thanks for...

When given my Bronica I was also given a roll of film that expired in 2010: Portra 160. Being a child, I couldn't wait until the film I had ordered arrived, so I had a go with that film. The results were patchy and I am not sure whether that is totally down to my incompetence with the camera...

Yes, I can see how that could be effect.
