Hi all,
I recently had two rolls of Kodak 400 color film developed at a store. I dropped the film off at the store and had them mailed to me.
One of them had gone through X-rays multiple times before being developed but came out fine. However, the other came out blank/transparent with not even any frame numbers or letters on the edges. It smells pretty strong too.
The store claim that I had not load it properly or that the film is too old. I know that I loaded it properly and I believe that even if I did not load it properly the numbers would still show on an unexposed film. The film is not that old, even if it were expired it would not be more than two years expired. I've even fished out a more than ten years old roll of film from my brother's old camera and had it developed, still came out with photos and the numbers on the edges. Unlike my roll of film, it hasn't even been stored in the fridge!
I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions of what else could go wrong? I just want to make sure that I won't make the same mistake again and ruin another roll of film...
