I was given a few rolls of 30 year old neopan 400 the other day.
Here are a few shots from Zorki 3M and Jupiter 8.

Thank you for the kind words.
First time I have used Neopan 400 and maybe its age is against it, but it finished much grainier than I thought it would.
I have a little more and will try it again.

You have excellent results, the film has gotten granier as it ages seems. I really miss Neopan 400, it used to be my favorite film and I still have some stashed away _________________ -Jussi

Thanks Klaus.
I have concluded that the mono conversion in NIK is causing most of the grain.
Here is a shot from LR without NIK.
Much smoother

It's actually amazing how stable negative film is, especially when frozen. I guess we don't have to be worried about the availability of film 30 years from now.
Did you expose these at 400? Any change to development to compensate for age? |

No, Teemo, I exposed at box speed and used Ilford Peceptol developer.
Development was 20minutes at 3:1 and 20 degrees C
The negatives came out quite thin and needed help after scanning from LR and NIK to bring out the tones that I wanted.
I should have perhaps used a different developer or given a longer development time. This was my first roll of Neopan so it was a suck it and see exercise for me.
Also, I am unsure of the accuracy of the shutter on my old Zorki 3M. The images definitely look underexposed.
I have a couple more rolls and will use a different camera whose speeds I trust.
All good fun

One more from this roll - taken in extremely low light at f2 and the film was still underexposed.
This is the best I can get out of it
