Freezer For Film?

[wjlapier]

I googled Film Freezer and didn't come up with anything page one. Just curious if there is such a thing as a film freezer--non commercial. Take a look at this site if you haven't already.

Anyway, SOMEONE wants me to clear my film out of the freezer. I just bought 100 rolls of Arista Premium and 50 rolls of 120 Acros 100! Before that I was already taking up 1/3 of the freezer!

A freezer is a freezer. Go to Home Depot or your favorite appliance store and get one. The manufacturers don't care if you want to store film or pork chops.

Just get a small half-height, or counter-height, refrigerator and place it where convenient. If there's no place for it, get a little counter-top size refrigerator or freezer. That will fit anyplace. Neither is expensive.

Note: SOMEONE will want to borrow a little space in it from time to time.

Google 'small freezer' or 'compact freezer' or 'upright freezer.'

I am in the same boat. I now have all of the door, one full shelf and one drawer full of film. My GF is sort of unhappy about it. I looked at Costco and a decent small upright was about $250.

To save money get gallon jugs of water, freeze them and leave them in there. A full freezer uses less electricity ... unless it is full of film 🙂

I used to have to beg my GF to let me have space in her film fridge. Then she went digital and now I'm allowed to play with her R4 and 50/2. Oh yeah, she gave me all her Velvia.

Why would you need a freezer in the Yukon?

I picked up an older, full size freezer in craigslist for $60 or so. Probably an electricity hog, but it's got a great deal of film in I now. And I have a happier spouse as I'm not using our indoor refrigerator/freezer any more.

My film shares space with lobster tails, abalone, rock scallops, and biological samples in a large freezer in my garage. They coexist inside without problem.

On the freezer door some Legacy Pro 100, TMax 100 and 3200, Efke 25 and Pan F. A beaker of Perceptol being chilled for souping.

On the self a box of Dunhill pre-Castro Cubans ... Churchills (nine out of the original 10 still there anyway).
