That was me, Ann. It looks like we'll have to go by the date and batch number. I have been shooting the 12/05 and 02/06 dated film with no problems. I don't have the batch number for 02/06 film, but the 12/05 film is batch 110448680.

November?? Don't tell me that, I just bought a case and half of 12/2005 time zero film today. Now I just need to get the darn camera.

BTW do you store this film in the fridge, or just a cool place?

[ann]

the fridge is fine aggie, but not the freezer.

Also best to orient the cases so the film is either flat or on end, not on the long side; storage on edge can result in settling of the chemicals in the pod, which in turn can cause incomplete spreading when the print is ejected. Well, okay, maybe you'll like the effect -- but when I pay $1.50 for a single frame, I want to be sure I get to see all of it...
