I know a lot of photographers who have old film in the fridge
or freezer.  I might have some Ektachrome Tungsten buried
in the freezer.  (if I find that, it's being trashed, too old.)

Keeping film chilled extends its life.  But I have no idea how
much; I have no idea whether your 2005 print film would still
be good.  Since they can correct for a lot of errors in printing,
it might be usable (of course, if you no longer have the camera...)

In 2005, the resolution was decent and the CD was a big help
in emailing out my pictures.
