Expired film also can lead to grainy images.. partly because expired film needs a bit more light, and if you don't shoot accordingly you get a bit of underexposure, which in turn adds grain as @M_V said.. the brick wall one you posted kinda looks like expired Kodak Color 200
I'm trying to remember now, such a rookie move but I didn't make note of the fecking films. One was definitely Kodak UltraMax 400, another was some very expired Kodak Colour 200. And I am drawing a complete blank with the BnW. I thought it was HP5, but looking at them now I'm guessing it must have been another heavily expired hand-me-down roll from a friend. The expired rolls I did overexpose by 1 stop (roughly), but maybe they needed more. He did literally scoop them from a dusty bowl in his kitchen and hand them to me. God knows how long they'd been sat there.
