Store exposed film

[jmccl@yahoo.com]

What are some products that I could use to store 8X10 exposed film after removal from film holder? Is this bag that I found at B&H a good choice? https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/15808-REG/Delta_13510_Light_Tight_Safe_T_Bags_with.html

I think most who do this use an old film box, with its interior black plastic bag.

Thanks Donald. I've just ordered my first box of film, so I don't have an old box.

I'd bet there are LF photographers here who'd send you one.

Another option is a paper safe. Relatively inexpensive, and light tight. But yes, those bags you linked above look reasonably safe (and the labels are a nice touch). Don't rolt them too tightly, so the film corners don't poke through. I've never unloaded my film holders without being ready to process, but if you have more shooting to do (on vacation, for instance) than you have film holders, this could be a good way to go.

Use a different bag/box for each film type and N-/+ processing.

These plastic lightproof bags are 10'14". SHould work for you.
