FUJICHROME professional 400D Heys guys got a load of this film a while back from a guy I had bought camera gear off. He had kept it all in his fridge. Anyway its obviously expired but still seems of value to people. I don't shoot film anymore so will probably sell it on ebay. Most of the stuff I see online is 120 not 35mm. Anyone know how much these are worth, I have 10 rolls all sealed in a pack. Attachment Deleted |

That's a blast from the past. I seem to recall using one rol as a trial, for a 400 transparency film it seemed good.

Must be old, I remember when it was replaced by Provia 400... I would guess 20-25 years old. |

Provia 400 (and 1600) didn't come out at the same time as the 100 - Fuji had the rather wonderful MS (multi speed) 100/1000 before that that was my fast slide film of choice it's really that I'm going off, as I didn't use the 400D. But I might be misremembering dates, for sure. |

But now I'm thinking that was Trebi, and the 400X was maybe 2010-ish. Can't be bothered to Google it though!  |

FWIW, I was given 30 rolls of Fujichrome 400 for a job back in 1986 and they lasted me still around 2000. I used one roll for the job and the rest for fun such as this .. Attachment DeletedAttachment Deleted |

I'm torn on pricing. Sell low to someone you know will use them, but on eBay at low price they'll probably get resold for a profit. Go high and you'll get silly money but then reinforcing the inaccessibility to transparency film for more cost conscious users.

At that age, and stored in a fridge rather than a freezer, I think I would try to sell to the Lomography crowd rather than the more general user, as the results may well be unpredictable. Which paradoxically means a higher price...  |

He's not joking. I saw a website selling expired rolls of currently available film at a higher price than you'd pay anywhere for the fresh stuff. It's mad.

Amazon has 36 exposure Fujichrome at something over £30 a roll, not sure which one though.
