    Polaroid 55 4x5"

    Hi,

    I found an unopenend box of this film, expired Aug. 2004, in the cellar, where it was stored cool and dry and which I had forgotten there.

    Can I still use it?
    Any suggestions?

    Thank you.

    Can you still use it? Absolutely! With some luck you will have perfectly viable film. As long as the reagent pods aren't dried out, shoot away!

    And if the pods are dried out, you can still develop the negative in a "normal" way, e.g. HC-110.

    If you don't plan to use it you could easily sell it for $150-200 on eBay.

    I've used some Polaroid roll film that expired in 60's and was amazed at how well it worked!

    I find T55 to hold up quite well in its old age. Even if you have some undeveloped corners, enjoy!!
