    Not to change the subject, but...

    ...I always thought it would super cool to be able to buy "exposed" film. IOW, film that has been exposed (properly), just not processed yet. You then process it yourself, and see (hopefully with great delight) what kind of pictures you get. As they say, "a surprise in every box!".

    Ok, whatever...

    If it were me, I'd hang on to the film. You know THE PULSE is coming eventually, and all electronics, including digital cameras, will be fried.

    The only cameras that wll work will be older manual film ones. Now, when that time comes, do you want to have to pay $1000 for a roll of film just to take a freakin' picture?

    Did I mention that, I LOVE FILM!!
    I am taking it though that all of this film is 35mm?
    Do you have any 120? It doesn't have to be within its date...
    ;) ;)

    Hey, Brian, maybe he has both and we can split it. You take the 120 and I'll take the 35mm.

    Come on, PJ, we both LOVE FILM!!!!!!

    Hey, just take an extra film spool and adapt your Holga for 35mm. It looks pretty cool, actually!
