Canon EOS 30, Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM, 1/60s, f2.8 – Kodak Gold 200 rated at ISO 100

An image from Expired Film Day 2026.

I knew I was going to be in York that day so I packed two 35mm AF SLR cameras for ease of use, a Canon EOS 30 (loaded with Kodak Gold 200 that expired in February 2014) and a Minolta Dynax 800si (loaded with Fuji Neopan 400 that expired in December 2011).

Developed by AgLab. Digitised using Nikon D5600 & AF-S Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8 and Nikon ES-2 Film Digitising Adapter with minimal cropping and tweaking in Lightroom Classic CC.

An image from a visit to the Midland Air Museum in May.

F-BGNR is a Vickers Viscount 708 that entered service with Air France in May 1954, serving with that airline until 1962 when it was sold to Air Inter who operated it for 11 years and whose livery the aircraft now carries.

In 1973 F-BGNR became a ground instructional airframe at Scone Airport in Scotland, remaining there until 1996 when it was sold to Skysport Engineering who put the aircraft into storage in Bedfordshire pending conversion to a conference venue. The conversion didn’t go ahead and F-BGNR moved to the Midland Air Museum in 2007.

Another image from the night photo shoot at Newark Air Museum I took part in back in October…

XS417 first flew on 17 July 1964 and was delivered to 226 Operational Conversion Unit (OCU) at Royal Air Force (RAF) Coltishall in May 1965.

XS417 spent its final few years moving between 11 Squadron at RAF Binbrook and the Lightning Training Flight before being retired in May 1987 and was finally moved to Newark Air Museum on 27 April 1988.
