So @RoamingScott@ sent me this ancient, expired, garbage film. Just to mess with me because he knew I wouldn't be able to resist, and waste time and money shooting/developing it.
So, 1970's vintage film? Stored by a furnace? ISO 100? Maybe ISO 100 40 years ago. Scott said give it a stop or two extra light, so I went with two. I actually would have gone with more - because why not it's a complete cr@p shoot at this point - but it was non DX coded and I have a Pentax Espio 24EW that bizarrely defaults to ISO 25 for non DX film.
So junk film - not gonna put that in a fancy camera - in the Espio it goes.
And the results? Psychedelic acid trip man. Seriously far out. I also have included an unmolestered scan so you can see that all I did was adjust curves in LR to increase contrast and saturation. I did not use some lame filter software to completely change colours etc.
This is one of the more 'normal' looking images. Full on trip-meister ones to come.
Unmolestered straight from negativelabpro conversion:

Those really are psychedelic! Reminds me of what sometimes happens on the first shot of a roll of (unexpired) Kodak Aerocolor if I haven't bothered to load the film in the dark -- this was shot with my Mamiya C330.

Can you explain why your colors seem to ROYGBIV in a circle outwards from the center, while mine were top to bottom in straight lines?
Maybe how I 'scanned' the film?
I used (as I always do) a Nikon ES-2 film copier attached to a 60mm Macro lens on my Z7, and hand held it over an led light pad.
This is how I scan all my 35mm film, I didn't do anything differently on this roll.
I used a Pentax Espio 24EW p&s camera. Not sure if the lens on that had any effect.

That looks a lot like a 1970's cassette. Kodak started using DX in the early 1980's. Are there any edge markings? I'm guessing it's GAF.
