Disposable Camera

[Drimnagh Road]

Just found two disposable cameras during a bedroom clean up, it says develop by April 2010.

Anyway, I had a think back and I remember that I used these during a visit to Anglia in July 2008 to do the Yarmouth 47s, I left my camera behind in Dublin and bought two disposables for a tener in WH Smiths in Norwich Station.

Anyway, despite the April 2010 "sell by" date, would it be worth putting them in to get developed? I remember it was a beautiful bright Summer weather on the day, so they probably would have turned out ok. Needless to say, they got thrown into a cupboard pending a trip to the Pharmacy to get done and I forgot all about them.

Definitely, I have put films in for processing that have been 5 years past the process date and although the colours had shifted they still came out okay.

Go for it, if the colours are a bit off you can always scan the prints or negs and try to digitally correct them.

Cheers folks! Will do!

I had disposable camers for a trip to the US in 2002, which I didn;t develop until late 2005. They were OK! Going by that, you'll be fine!

the development date is just a reccommendation, so you cant come back and complain to the maker of the disposable camera when the colours have gone off or anything,
