<p>I often use Velvia 50 expired for 2-3 years already (all frozen during the time) and haven't had any problem. However, you would be trying your luck with film expired for 14 years.</p>

<p>I am still shooting slides. Got a fridge full of fuji Velvia and provia that should last me another 2-3 years and I will stock up along the way when deals come up. I shoot a lot of detailed natural scenes in overcast light and slides really brings out the subtlety of all the colors! Some of my friends use top-end Nikon or Canon digital bodies but I haven't seen any body consistently matches the quality of slides in color. </p> <p>I am also in Toronto and it is sad to see Toronto Image Works stop slide processing. However, there are two local alternatives with quite reasonable pricing, so we don't have to send the film far away. Northern Artists actually has a two-hour turnaround time. you cannot ask much more than that.</p> <p>http://www.northernartists.com/services_slideprocessing.php<br> http://www.e6it.ca/</p> <p> </p>
