Q: 1. What is the expiry date for the films in the Ilford HP5+ 50-roll pack?

A: Any film that was within 6 months of its expiration date would specifically listed as short-dated on our site, and sold as such. As this is not short-dated, its expiration date will be at least 6-months out. Unfortunately, we cannot give an exact expiration date for the film. The warehouse is not located near our offices for us to physically check an item for expiration date, serial numbers, etc.

Q: 2. what kind of camara is used with this film ???

A: That film is used in medium format cameras such as Hasselblads and Mamiyas. These were the predominant cameras used by professional studio photographers before the advent of digital photography.

Q: 3. 1) What is the expiration date?2) How to ship to Beijing China? EMS or FedEx or other? 3) In the ship of transportation through X light?Thank you

A: 1/ The expiration date is the date stamped by the manufacturer on the film box and it is the date until the manufacturer guarantees best performance under standard exposure and development. Film can be used few years after the expiration date without serious quality loss if the film is stored at low temperature (freezer).If not stored at low temperatures the film starts losing quality due to oxidation (slow process of fogging). Fogging becomes visible few years after the expiration date.2. How to ship to China? - sorry I'm not qualified to answer this question3. Do not let film go through X-ray - that will destroy unprocessed film that (undeveloped). Use special X-ray protective material to keep film safe when it passes through X-ray machines.

Q: 4. Is this the bricks of 10 packaging or is this really MFR # 1574616 (as the description says) which are 50 FOIL-WRAPPED films? That does make a difference to me traveling... Thanks!

A: the bricks of 10 are not foil wrapped. the film rolls are in plastic canisters.

Q: 5. how many roll in the box?

A: This is a special type of film called a Bulk Roll which is 100 (feet) long. Bulk Rolled film is used in conjunction with a special loading machine and reusable film canisters. This was very commonly used in the past by newspaper agencies, magazines and colleges where film is used in greater mass. A 100 roll could commonly yield 15-18 rolls of film depending on how many frames were loaded by the user into the reusable canisters. Unfortunately we no longer carry/sell the bulk loading machines that are required for use with this type of film. You would have to find that type of machine used someplace.

Q: 10. Are the film rolls expired?

A: I've bought a few rolls from B&H and they have always been fresh.
