If it is due to humid and hot in the room, I does mine in an air conditioned room. :smile:

In hot weather I use a plastic ice pack that I have frozen in the freezer and leave it in the changing bag for half an hour before I put the tank, spiral and film in it and it keeps my hands from sweating while I load the film.

Let me get my mind around this ...

You place the plastic ice pack in the changing bag along with your hands a half hour before loading the film on the reels for the tank, right? :blink:

Now I can get this image into my head and understand.

I spent ~1.5 hours half naked in the pitch black bathroom with a tiny fan at 12AM, rolling 34 36exp cassettes of Kodak Double X....

This image I dare not get in my mind.

:whistling:

So is this rated X, XX, or XXX? :sick:


What else is sweaty, dare I ask?

Mr. Roger Luo sells cotton fabric changing bags on the auction site. My sweaty hand related problems vanished after I changed my old synthetic fibre bag to his 100% cotton bag. I know several other photogs who say the same.
