Developing expired film question

[Malinku]

So I got a 120 roll of Agfapan apx 100 that expired in 07/2001. That I'm going to be developing in Sprint Standard film Developer. (shot @ ISO 100)

Since this is the first time I'm developing Expired B&W film. I'm wondering if there is a way to figure out the proper time or would the time listed at digital truth still be good (8.5 mins)?

If it's been frozen it should still be okay at the recommended times.

For b&w thats 100 iso it will probably have little impact on the image quality. I wouldn't worry about it. If it was 30 yrs out of date or stored in the trunk of a car for 10 yrs that'd be another story.

hi

have you looked at the sprint systems website ?
they have 2 helpful charts ( one with films and development times ) and a 2nd one of variables ( expired film &c )

http://sprintsystems.com/time-charts/

agfa 100 is letter "N"
expired film suggests "+1" so you go to the time chart and jump from "N" to "O" for your development time


have fun !

( ps. there is an "expanded" development chart )

I forgot about their chart. that will help a lot of future rolls as I developed before I looked at the charts.

But from what came out it looks to of come out good. I'll post a few of the shots once it is done drying.

one of the images from the roll. Think it turned out pretty well.

I would give it a stop more than box speed and dev for the std time
