Can undeveloped film be exposed to light?
Yes, it can. You can expose unexposed film, undeveloped film, or developed film to light, as long as it is yours. Actually, the act of taking the picture exposed the film to light. Exposing unexposed or undeveloped film to light, plainly, usually ruins the latent image or the possibility of obtaining such.
What happens if film gets exposed to light?
Film can be nearly impossible to blow out. If too much light hits film, an image will still be produced on a negative. An overexposed negative, even 3 to 4 stops over, can then be corrected in scanning or printing. Film captures images with a photochemical reaction in the emulsion when exposed to light.
What stores still develop film?
CVS, Walgreens, and Walmart still develop film at most locations. While these chains do offer film developing services, they send your film to another location for processing, which means turnaround time is usually around a week.
Can old 35mm film still be developed?

Will Walmart develop expired film?
Yes Walmart does indeed still develop film prints from both regular cameras and disposable cameras. Visit any Walmart store, and you’ll find the good old Photo Center, just like back in the day.
How long can you wait to develop exposed film?
Film should really be developed within a year of being exposed. After 2 years to 5 years, it might get a little grainy, and the colors might shift/fade a little bit.
How does film expire?
Over time the chemicals on the film lose their potency and start to deteriorate. The silver halides in the films’ emulsion degrade and lose their sensitivity. As a result, colours will lose their vibrancy, and contrasts will fade and grain increases. Eventually, expired film becomes foggy and unusable.
