    Old Agfa Optima 100 ?

    I have some old Agfa Optima 100 with an expiration date of 08/98. It's been kept cold. Any suggestions on what ISO to shoot it at? Thanks.

    I have some that crapped out in 2000. Pick a colorful evenly lit subject and meter off a gray card. Take some shots at 100, 64 and 50. Chances are the best will be around the ISO 64 mark. A gray card really is necessary to get the color even and accurate. Hope it's still good.
