Expired TRI-X: How long expired have you gone?

[Rafael]

I'm wondering how long past the expiry date people have shot TRI-X. What were the results like (obviously this depends on how the film was stored)? At what speed did you shoot it? Thanks.

>5 years old, stored in a cupboard, moving box and god knows where. No problems whatsoever (EI400, D76 1+1 10min).

40 years! Stored in a basement I am told. Lots of fog and curly, but if you compensate for that in development time, quite usable images.

1973, poorly stored 120 rolls. Still, as Anupam says, very usable with care. Old Plus-X is easier 😉

One roll from god knows when, stored in a forgotten and rusty IXMOO cassette, my guess is circa 1980, still useable, though fairly foggy.

One roll of 35mm, expiry somewhere in 1987 or 1988 if I remember correctly. Shot last year.

Lots of fog, very grainy, but still usable and publishable pictures.
