I found some Velvia 50 and Velvia 100F that had been lost since 2006. I moved shortly after these were purchased, and so they endured four years of Alabama summers in a hot attic.
If I shoot them, I plan to develop them normally, but how should I expose them?

Shoot 'em in a toy camera and cross process. That way, you won't have to worry about whether or not you nailed the exposure. You're going to get funky results anyway; might as well go all the way with it!

I've been shooting Provia 400F and Astia 100F that's dated for 2005/2006. I found that in some lighting conditions I have to set my meter at a 3rd or 2/3rd stops slower than rated speed. It would underexpose if I didn't compensate. Though in sunny 16 days, with bright shadow areas, it would shoot well at rated speed. All were processed normally. The results were all good, but it was a little more grainy than I had remembered Astia and Provia to be though.
