ben_hutcherson Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I typically toss my roll and sheet film into the freezer without much thought. With that said, though, I've recently acquired a small stash of FP-100C. At the rate I shoot it, it will take me a while to go through it and obviously I want to keep it fresh. I'm a bit hesitant to put it in the freezer as I'm afraid that the developing chemicals will freeze and cause issues. Is this film safest in the refrigerator, or should I just leave it out in a(cool) room. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glen_h Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I have wondered about this, too. I keep mine in my cool basement darkroom. I suspect a refrigerator is a good choice, but don't have so much room in mine. -- glen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJG Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Don't freeze it! A refrigerator should be OK--when I used a lot of Polaroid B&W and color pack film I used to refrigerate it to extend its life. Freezing it will destroy the chemical pods.
