Unlike the picture I just posted, this was from the earlier part of the roll, when I knew I needed to shoot the fifteen-years-expired roll of Fuji NPS 160 at about ISO 80. Thus the exposure is not bad for such old film. This was taken in the Kodak Retina 1a. It too has lots of digital processing, mainly to reduce contrast, but the original scan of this was a lot healthier than the other picture's scan.

I had an old, expired roll of Fuji NPS 160 (expired in 2002!) in my Kodak Retina 1a camera for more than six months when I finally finished it and got it developed this week. When I put it in the camera I knew it was the 160 film, so I was shooting it at 80 or so, and getting pretty good exposures. But by the time I was half-way through the roll, I forgot what film it was, and thought it was a fairly recent roll of Fuji 400, so I was shooting it at something around ISO 300. That stop-and-a-half difference made a big difference in the exposure. This shot, for instance, was very much under-exposed. But R has such a sweet smile that the picture's not bad anyway. (I did quite a bit of stuff -- dusting, burning, dodging, de-saturating, etc. -- to this picture to get the best from a very bad negative.)
