Re: [APML] Film Disaster??

[Bert Katzung <katzung@pacbell.net>]

Just a reminder (since nobody has mentioned it) that a "changing bag" is a
cheap and convenient substitute for a real darkroom and even for a real dark
room 8-); (sorry). I use a changing bag for respooling my 36x cartridges
into 2 18s and for cutting off those occasional 2 or 3 exposures that I
can't wait to have processed.
Changing bags go for 10-15 bucks and can be used in any subdued light
situation. Get 'em at any camera store.

>I'd take it to a lab, tell them the film is in the cannister, open in a
darkroom and have it processed. amazing how much you can salvage at times.

>or you could buy a reloadable cassette, take the film into a darkroom, load
it onto the cassette and then take that in to be developed, telling them
what kind of film it was. note, some places won't develop film unless its in
a 'normal' cassette. lot of people say they have E-6 film when its C-41 and
when cross processed blame the lab. so some labs just won't do it because of
those hassles.
