Anyone develop their own 35mm film and can give advice on longevity of chemicals? I've seen some people saying they degrade after a couple of weeks, some people saying months, one person doing a successful test with 30 month old chemicals, etc. Place I got the stuff from doesn't say anything about expiry - is it just something that older chemicals suffered?

Last used mine in April 2023 - within 30 months but obviously a lot longer than "weeks"! Worth a go or should I just accumulate more films until I can do 10-12 films in one go with fresh chemicals?

Let's do another one of almost-live film developing threads! This time, I have a roll of KosmoFoto Mono 100 film that I've shot in Olympus Shoot & Go R point'n'shoot from the mid-1990s. The camera has only one shutter speed, only one aperture, and there's no focusing, the lens is always focused at a hyperfocal distance.
I'll be developing this film in Rodinal, 1+50 dilution, and half past 10 in the evening already passed, so let's move fast...
