Hello everyone,
I am going to shoot with expired ektachrome films this weekend, which is intentional, and makes sense for the concept of my project. It expired in December 1996.
I am expecting to do some or a lot of job with photoshop in terms of color balance. My only concern is underexposure-- could anyone you kindly give me advice if there's anything I can prevent during the shoot for underexposure? Or would it be safer if I just push the films during the process? If so, how many stops should I push? I know it's hard to determine without seeing the physical material, but it would be super helpful and appreciated if anyone could share any knowledge.
The films have been stored in freezer mostly, at least 10 years, but I have no idea before then. But they are required from a well-known photographer and professor so I assume they have been kept well.
Thank you very much for reading and for your time.
Best,
Sue
