Really?? Well, that's interesting. I can only assume the person stored it properly; he was very much into old cameras, so ought to know what he was doing. Guess I'll hang onto it and try a roll some day.

But film has had a revival in many schools and never left our only public university. So we still have one lab in the state that develops C41 color negs and E6 color slides.
Siiigghhhhh....
I loved Hawaii.... Nice to know there is still interest in film. The guy who gave me this stuff totally turns up his nose at the idea of film anymore. Just, like, 'why would you want to bother'. Very much a film-is-dead guy.
I wonder if it will ever come "BACK back". Vinyl records are...? There's just such a glut of digital equipment and it's so easy for anyone to get into photography, no matter the result (oops, not going to rant about the general state of photography thanks to facebook etc...
)
I wish I lived near a photo lab. Halifax; nope, any developing means mail order.

Yeah, I have to admit I don't 'get it'.
Did not expect this would be such a big discussion. Interesting!
