Hi Nick, sorry to hijack your thread, but I seem to remember I have an
old Kodak camera which came in to my possession after he had passed
away in 1997. In the camera I noticed a little while back thatÂ* the
film had only been half used. May decide to take it some where (if
there is anyway that develops old 110 film) just to see what the
pictures he took were....That is if they will still be in a state to
develope.


I (rather foolishly) gave Boots a slightly out of date 110 colour film
to develop a few years ago and the prints came back purple. The girl in
the store refused even to apologise for the defect as she didn't think
it was anything to do with her.

It wasnt. I took two cameeas to sradinia some years ago - ahdne use
either for at leats 8 years and notice that one had slide flim in it, It
came back all green. Digitised it and color correcte it. No problem
