I will spend two weeks in Tuscany this year. I will have the SWC for film, plus the M9 for digital. I will try to be selective what I photograph. I recently bought 5 rolls of Reala and five rolls of Ektar. The rest will be from the fridge. I have plenty of Fuji 160 and Portra 160 and XP2 and AGFA 25 and EFKE 50 and 100.

That's nowhere near enough film!!! But great camera choice!

I need to estimate how many rolls of 120 film I need for 14+ days. I have many rolls frozen. Maybe having two rolls per day is a good estimate.

Raid: I know we all approach photography differently. One thing I always insure that I never want to think about is how much film I have left. So I always bring twice as much film as I think I can possibly use.
I tend to shoot quite freely until some focus of the overall theme comes to mind. If you do not have an overall theme, one ends up with a series of random photos with the only thing in common being that they were shot in the same geographical area. Once I get an overall theme for a series in mind, I then tend to be more selective and only shoot those things that fit into the theme.
You mention 8 different emulsions. I only shoot with one but know others see differently. With so many choices, how do you ever arrange to have the right one in the camera at the right time?

Bob,
I will choose mainly Reala 100 and one faster film for night potogrphy. My "theme" is capturing the sense of life in Italy in Tuscany. I will lok for people.
I always take more film than I actually use. The M9 can be used if I really use up ll 120 film.

Bob, that's such a well-conceived plan of attack!

not sure where you are going in Burma, but I really loved the color night shots
available in Y/Rangoon: the dark cover adds a veil of the sublime to the mix
of classic colonial architecture (thanks Britain) and modern day Myanmar culture.
Architecture interiors can also be especially time-stamped and unique.
Just make sure to report back to us with fotos after the trip!

That's what I end up with mostly, something like 30 rolls in 2 weeks. But I take at least double with me as there is no way to replenish the stock while on the move. I do use 6x4.5 however, so in 6x6 that would be 3 rolls a day. And then I often end up at places where you cannot/may not shoot.
I'm afraid that for 2 weeks Burma that wouldn't be enough for me. My take is always that I will never come back to the place so if I don't make a photo now I never will. I prefer to trow away 50% than fret over those 2 shots I didn't take.
EDIT: I don't have the luxury of digital as a backup, film only for me.
