Storing Exposed Film in the Freezer I live in Belize where it is hot 11 months out of the year and there is no air condioning. I have just learned about storing new film in the fridge or freezer, which I am going to begin doing immediately. My question is: Can the film be returned to the fridge or freezer after I have finished the roll or are there other ideas to preserve it? Sometimes it is 3-6 months before I can send it with someone back to the U.S. to be developed. Appreciate the help!

http://www.kodak.com/global/en/consumer/products/techInfo/e30/e30Contents.shtml is Kodak's recommendations for storing/handling film. They recommend that exposed film be processed immediately. "Storage at a low temperature after exposure will retard latent-image changes. You can keep exposed, unprocessed film in a refrigerator for a few days when necessary. Put the film in a sealed container, and allow the unopened container to reach room temperature before removing the film for processing."

Hi Rhonda, I found your name on this photography website after doing some research on family records. I wondered if you are the same person who is listed on the Civil War Florida website as a descendant of Daniel McQueen Blue of Keysville, Florida. I'm his great granddaughter, and would love to correspond with you if we are indeed related! I live in Fort Myers, Florida. You may contact me at krobinson33901@comcast.net. Kathy Holloway Robinson
