Order of analog photos photo index?

Hey 🙂

I'm currently sorting through all our old family photos and putting them in chronological order – and I've now encountered a problem:

You always get a photo index with the 36 numbered thumbnail preview images. Is number 1 the first or the last photo taken? So, would photo 1 be the "oldest" photo and 36 the "newest"/most recently taken photo, or is it the other way around?

Maybe someone here knows something about it :))

No. 36 is the last photo. Except you would have taken the photos to the wrong order when developing. However, since everything is automated there is rather unlikely.

Why don’t you just save the photos after the development date. In retrospect, film photos are no longer able to understand whether this has been done in a year or in the next or 3 years earlier.

The sledding can have been in January in the following year, but can also have been as good at the beginning of December when there was snow early. Easter egg hunt can have been after the Christmas photos. But it can also be just as good that Easter photos were made first, and then the camera lay around for half a year until Christmas.

The 36th is the latest.

You can’t put a film in a different way, it doesn’t even work with an old 120 roll film 😉
