The Sully – Expired Disposable Colour Film Camera – 35mm Film

Description

We call this expired gem “The Sully” The film has likely expired since 2011, which can result in unpredictable results and muted colors in your photos.
The battery in this camera is as old as the film and it is very unlikely that the flash will work. Please assume that it will not function if it does it will be a pleasant / unpleasant surprise!

The film is 39 exposures and back in 2011 it was a 400 iso film.

Here are some things to keep in mind when shooting with expired film:

• Unpredictable results: Expired film can produce a variety of unexpected effects, such as color shifts, light leaks, and decreased sharpness. These effects can be creative, but they can also be frustrating.
• Muted colors: Expired film often produces muted colors. This is because the dyes in the film degrade over time.
• Lower ISO: It is recommended to shoot expired film at a lower ISO than what is stated on the box. This is because expired film is less sensitive to light. For example, if the film is rated at 800 ISO, you might try shooting it at 400 ISO or even 200 ISO. We recommend allowing 1 stop per decade expired.

Here are some tips for shooting with a The Sully:

• Use plenty of light: Expired film is less sensitive to light than fresh film, so it’s important to use plenty of light when shooting. Try to shoot outdoors on a sunny day.
• Don’t expect perfect results: Expired film is a gamble. You may not get the results you’re hoping for, but you might be surprised by the creative effects you can achieve.
• Have fun! Expired film can be a lot of fun to experiment with. Don’t be afraid to get creative and try new things.

Because the film is expired it can be a better option to safely remove the film from the camera and load it into a camera that will allow you adjust the ISO settings. This will allow you to shoot the film at a lower ISO than what is stated on the camera.
