While making some digital archives, I'm amazed at how many different Vericolor films I used. This higher contrast version of the film came in two flavors VHC 4329 and VHC 6329.

Pentax 6x7, 105/2.4, Vericolor HC 100, VHC 6329

I was given 3 rolls of Vericolor HC about 6 years ago. I loved the results I got from it and I have been keeping an eye out for more of it ever since. I haven't run across any at all until just a few weeks ago I found 8 rolls of it on ebay. I've got a roll of it nearly finished in my Rolleiflex 2.8C. Hopefully it's close to as good as the stuff I got in 2012.

Here's one I shot in 2012.

Zenza Bronica S2
Nikkor-P 75/2.8

Okay, yours looks good. I have some color negatives getting discoloration spots on them but I haven't seen it on any of my VHC rolls so far. They look to be holding up better than the VPS film. But I can't say if that is due to something else causing that.

Are you talking about film you shot and developed many years ago?
I've often wondered how developed color negative film hold up over time. A few years ago I scanned some 35mm color negative film that was shot and developed in 1998. It was drugstore Kodak 400 of some sort and it was actually pretty decent still.

Yeah, some 20-25 year old film that was lab developed.

Ahh. I don't have much developed film that goes back further 2008.

This is from that 1 roll of Kodak 400 I shot in 1998. Scanned in 2013.

I thought I'd toss this quick and dirty scan into the mix. I have a lot of negatives that have not had any particularly careful storage, and they all seem to have held up OK. Faded prints are more of an issue.

This is a colour negative of some 116 Safety Film I scanned a year ago in Vuescan using default settings, no post processing on this so you can see the dust and scratches.

This was shot in the spring of 1972, on my grandfathers Kodak Autographic 1A Junior when I took a photography class in junior high school, professionally developed through Super S Drug Mart, which would have sent it to an unknown lab.

Just an interesting curiosity.

Not to be critical (I have taken hundreds like this), but don't you find you take a shot like this and hope for so much more in the final result?
