| I'm into photography, but have only worked with a digital camera.I found my moms old film camera the other day and a few minutes ago found some old film.I heard somewhere that you can still use expired film, the colours just don't come out like regular film.Is this true?The film I found was kept in the freezer.But there is also film at my work that I was thinking about getting and trying that is only a few months expired and has been sitting on a self in the store for that long. |

| Absolutely. My husband is a photographer and buys expired film all the time. Sometimes the colors are funky, sometimes they're great... but he hasn't had a bad roll yet! |

| You can use expired film and should be fine. As long as its been kept in a cool dry place the colors should be fine. |

| Expired film is fine, especially if it's been kept somewhere cool (like a fridge), it will last some years after the expiration date. |

| It is a matter of how far past the expiry date and in what sort of conditions it has been stored. Sounds like it wasn't stored in a fridge, which would make it last longer.But the older it gets, the more it degrades. If it is kept cool and dry it degrades more slowly. So if what you have has been stored at room temperature for quite a while, you can still use it, just don't expect the results to be award winners. |

Everything About Your Wedding
Wedding Marketplace
Buy and sale all wedding related products.
Where and How to Start?
There’s so much to do, it can be mind-numbing. Don’t worry. I planned and held my first wedding in two months and my second wedding in three months. If you have the luxury of a year or more, feel lucky!
Wedding Invitation
Ideally, invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the big day to give guests time to make arrangements to attend and RSVP back to you.
Wedding Attire
Where I come from, buying a tuxedo is virtually unheard of. Renting is probably the way to go to realize the ultimate savings on the groom’s attire.
Wedding Flowers
Cheap doesn't mean that your wedding flowers can't be beautiful. All flowers are lovely no matter what they cost.
Wedding Ceremony Decoration
Most wedding ceremonies are short and sweet, so why spend a majority...
Wedding Music
Music for your wedding ceremony could consist of live or recorded performances.
Wedding Photography
Pictures are priceless, and you want to be sure you have plenty of good pictures of your special day.
Wedding Favors
Some brides don’t like the idea of giving gifts to her guests, but we think it’s a nice gesture as a thank you...
Wedding Food
Wedding food can take a huge chunk out of your wedding budget.
Wedding Cake
Your wedding cake is the centerpiece of the reception. It is a scrumptious dessert as well as part of a tradition
Wedding Party
The question of whether or not to serve alcohol at your wedding is one that can cause dissension in the ranks of family.
