I've been threatening to do it, and I did it!
I bought the kit I needed to develop B&W film again, and shot a long-expired roll of @ilfordphoto HP5+.
This is the first film I've shot in well over 10 years. I suspect the HP5+ that I shot here, which expired in 2012, was probably one of the last rolls I bought, which puts the purchase date around 2010 at the latest. This would line up with the point that I was made redundant, and almost completely gave up shooting for fun.
Amazingly, my old EOS 1N still works perfectly after a bit of cleaning, and my ancient Konica Minolta film scanner still functions too, thanks to the excellent Vuescan software.
I took a rather indifferent video of loading the camera to mark the occasion.
The video and a couple more frames are after the jump.
