    Re: Starting points for processing expired Tri-X 320 ??

    Following up on Kevin's test procedure- I shoot my test sheets in my normal, numbered film holders. I arrange them in the darkroom so that I know which is which, then when removing the film I use a single hole punch and put 1-2-3-4 etc. Holes in the film to tell which is which.

    I used long expired Tri-X 320 since the last year (or two. It was a big box, well stored. I'm about to finish it unfortunately). I don't know how long it is expired as I'm not at home at the moment.

    But what I could say is I use Rodinal to develop it. The first time, I was scared due to the sudden change of color of the chemical when emptying the tank (going dark purple. I thought it was the whole emulsion). I was sure my films will be blank, but no. The results were always fine without any loss of details due to underexposure.

    So, my opinion is. You will be good to go, even with Rodinal. But that will depend on how stored the film was.
