It was a slide film that was adored by shooters across genres for decades, offering some truly legendary color rendition. The chemicals and process (K-14) were specific to the film and rather tricky, so the last roll of it was developed in 2010. That was it. The old film stock became almost worthless from a practical photography perspective.

The biggest thing you must be aware of is notifying the lab when you drop the film off, so they properly develop it. When you push or pull the film, make sure to also write it on the film cartridge. The exact rules for notifying the lab depends from location to location. So be sure to check with them how they prefer to be informed. Developing Film
Expired Color Film. For all expired color film except Kodachrome (see below), you have the choice of processing as color or b/w negative. With black and white you have a much better chance of recovering an image. Developing long-expired films processed in color may yield accurate colors, but most will likely have some form of color shifting or
With proper storage, the film quality can last for years, but keep in mind that the longer you wait to develop the film, the greater the risk of color shifts, fading, or other forms of degradation. So, it's best to develop the film as soon as possible after use to ensure the best possible results.
2. Take your camera in to the store. You'll need the whole camera in order to get your film developed. Fill out a film envelope with your name, contact information, and amount of film you're having developed. Drop your camera into the envelope and remove the detachable tag that tracks your film.
For my 120 film reel depth in the Paterson tank I needed 600ml approx (to be safe) so used 6ml of Rodinal to tap water. Normally I develop for 19-23 mins so I did not want to wait the usual ‘1 hour’. I timed 30mins and did 1 agitation at 15mins (so this is semi-stand developing really) (for even results/ increased contrast) at 20 degrees.
Four numbers appear at the bottom or top of the canister. Shapes that appear next to each will show what the film’s status is before you use it, as we will look at below: An unexposed film has a white dot at the 1 position. A film that has been changed mid-roll and is ready for reloading has a white half-circle at 2.
If the film is old film or expired it is likely you don’t know how it was stored so be aware of the possibility of damaged film. If your film was overexposed and underdeveloped use a light meter when shooting to get the correct exposure and make sure to develop your film when processing for the appropriate amount of time.
