Ran some Fuji Superia 400 through a 50 year old Yashica and the colors came out completely different than I expected
I loaded up a roll of Superia I've had in my fridge since 2022 into my Yashica Electro 35 GSN yesterday. Developed it at home in Cinestill C41 at exactly 102 degrees like always, but the greens turned almost teal and the skin tones went pinkish. I'm thinking maybe the film age plus the older lens coating on the Yashica did something weird together. Anyone else get strange color shifts when mixing old cameras with newer film stocks?

Did you fresh-batch your C41 chemistry or use a kit that was already mixed up?

Hold on, you're storing film in your fridge? I mean, I've heard of people doing that for long term but (and sorry @kim_johnson51) that doesn't explain that crazy teal shift.
