not sure if this is the right place to post this..... but just asking a question. I got the Fuji P45 holder today which was loaded with a pack of Fuji FP100C film which I believe is a bit outdated.

Grey's ended uo having a purple tint in the image I took today... and wondering if that is the nature of the film, or because the film is expired. I've put the other boxes of film I got in the fridge... as they too are expired, but wondering what would case the purple tint.

FP100C does weird things depending on how far out of date it is, fresh FP100C has always been a good performer for me, but if stored improperly, or out of date, I have had issues with color shift and such. Sounds like the film you got in the holder, may have a combination of problems with outdated as well as improper storage, heat has caused my shots to go purple in areas in the past.

thanks... I figured it was probably due to the film being expired, and possibly not refridgerated. Hopefully the other packs will not have the same effect.

I've experienced the same with FP100c45 expiry 2004. Then again I haven't experienced it with more than one pack, and I have about 10 packs from that expiry!
