Past expiration date

Bought a batch of what turns out to be really expired Ektachrome 100 EPP film. Negs are nearly black and very tough to scan. All ideas to improve results are welcome!

How long is it expired and on which ISO have you exposed it? :)
sandravo · 2014-02-12 18:47
@brommi There is no foil or box that holds the rolls, so I have absolutely no idea what the exp. date might be. I exposed this roll at box speed, iso 100. Seeing these results I shot another roll at iso 25-50, but that made things even worse!

Mhhhhh :/ it made it worse ?! I would expect better results ... because for me it works with all film! If my iso 400 film has expired 10 years ago I shoot this roll on ISO 200 / 20 years -> iso 100 ... Maybe your films were stored under baaaaad conditions :(

@brommi That would be my guess. Luckily, success was guaranteed by the Ebay-seller, so I got a full refund.
