I've been in Kenya and Tanzania for two weeks shooting mostly 120 portra 400 Fuji pro400 ektar100 and velvia 50(a couple years expired)
Been keeping the film shaded and cool but the other day I got on a bus and put my film bag on the floor to guard it from the sun and fell asleep. Two hours later maybe less we arrive and I realize the bag and the film inside is very very very warm. Like...40-50degrees celsius warm. It was very warm in my hand. Not hot, but enough for me to be alarmed! Is my film ruined? I've traveled many times with film in extremely hot climates and been forced to leave it in hot cars before with no effects but I feel like this time it was way warmer than before but at least only for an hour and a half to two hours ...I guess keeping in mind it took the car about 15minutes to get that hot in the first place. The bag it was in shielded it somewhat.
