What is the expiration on the film?

The expiration of the film will be based on the batch you get, and is listed on the cardboard box it comes in (not on the actual film canister). My batch arrived with an expiration in 2015, and it was definitely not expired before this.

Lomography photographers enjoy shooting with expired film to add a uniquely creative flare to their photos. My advice: don't worry about the expiration date because your photos will be spectacular no matter what (if you're the type of person who enjoys surprises).

I do not know about the expiration but it has always been enough. My 4 year old is still enjoying it.

I think the expiration date is on the packaging. It is not on the cartridge itself

The film doesn't use expiration dates. Instead, it uses date of production. In this case, it was 12/11, which is 10 months before the photos were taken. I'm using the same Polaroid camera in the same house, same lighting for these pictures and the difference is dramatic. It looks like there is a thick fog in the room, whereas the old photos from a few years earlier with the original Polaroid film look crisp and vivid in a side-by-side comparison.I also store my film in the refrigerator, as it says to keep it cool until use.

I freeze mine and it can last pretty much forever if kept frozen. I also keep some in the refrigerator for when I need a roll quickly. B&W films tend to last longer than color films anyway so it should last a while if it's new stock.

Although I do not work for Fujifilm - i have used this film extensively. I buy the large pack of film about every year. I keep mine in a dark place (in a drawer). The film works great a year after I buy it.The benefit with using this whole 'system' is that the Fujifilm is NEW! It's less than a year old. Whereas if you bought an original 'polaroid' brand camera and you were LUCKY enough to find film for it - it would have been made in the 1980's. (yeah that old!) After 20 years - unused film can go bad. Fujifilm used in this system is NEW (1 year old or less) It will be fine! Although I do not work for Fujifilm - i have used this film extensively.

All Lomography film is past the expiration date but does not give you a specific date.

I ordered the film on amazon as well not reading carefully that it was expired, so it did not work. I know that urban outfitters sells the film in store and online and these are new. It is somewhat expensive in my opinion but worth it.

It usually has the production date and expiration date stamped on the bottom of the can. It is estimated to last for two years according to the dates I've seen.

8 don't buy from this company. They're all expired film. The final photo comes out destroyed no matter what you do.

You need to ask a seller this question, not Amazon customers. However I have ordered film from Amazon sellers (fulfilled by Amazon) and received film expired by a year! Amazon replaced it (got to keep the old film) at no charge. Also the expired film worked fine. But I've ordered over 20 packs and have only ever receive one expired pack.

Mine wasn't expired and I hold no problems developing the film, as I needed it for a Photography class

"I need to go back to check on the camera which I have one left in storage room; they are using the old style 400-speed color negative film, I guess should last one or two years, so they could be treated as roll film, take it to Costco, which is the cheapest exposure and develop cost I found." answered on March 8, 2013Correction: This is 800-speed, not 400. I bought on May 2012, expiration on camera shows 2014-02

THe film will make foggy pictures if the rolls are more than a few years expired. I've shot with film that are less than a year past exp date with perfect results
