FUJIFILM Fujichrome Velvia 50 Professional RVP 50 Color Transparency Film (35mm Roll Film, 36 Exposures, 5 Pack)

Fuji Velvia is still in production , ad there is a expiration year and month stamped on the box

The expiration date of the RVP 135-36 Fujichrome Velvia 50 Professional Color Slide Film (ISO-50) is at least 6 months away. While we cannot give the exact expiration date of the film, any film on our site that was within 6 months of its expiration date would be sold as short dated and specifically listed as such on our site.

My experience with slide film is that when frozen it retains very good reproductive quality. 5-6 years ago I purchased a large stock of Elite Chrome - EB-3 and EBX. I recently brought out some rolls of EBX - 2012 exp. - and the developed product looks gorgeous. I purchased some of these Velvia 50 and have stored them in the freezer and expect they will be fine when I get around to using them. I have some rolls of Velvia I have had for many years and every time I have used a roll the colors are fine. Also, I take the film out of the freezer shortly before I am going to use it. I warm it in my hand for 10 or so minutes and/or put it under my leg on the seat of the car for the drive to wherever I am going to shoot a roll. I have never had any issues. Think about it. If you are taking photos in the winter, the film in the camera is pretty close to what is the ambient temperature. Of course there is a limit, but the batteries in the camera usually fail prior to that point anyway. One final thing. Prior to sending for development, I keep the exposed rolls in the freezer too.

Yes.

Yes, I just got an order of Velvia 50 with a 2017 expiration and also Velvia 100 with a 2018 expiration.
