Question
Can I store my new rolls of packaged Fuji Film in the freezer or
refrigerator, if I am not going to use it for awhile?
Answer
For long term storage you may keep your Fuji Film in the freezer, below
32 degrees Fahrenheit. Or, for everyday storage during times when the
temperature is higher, you may store your film in the refrigerator.
However, please note, before use, allow films to stand at
room-temperature for over 1 hour. Opening the package/box while film is
cold may cause harmful condensation.
Question
Is there any danger to bringing my Fuji film through an airport x-ray
machine?
Answer
In an effort to make the skies safer for the traveling public, new
scanner technology, which detects explosive devices, is being installed
at many airports around the country. Because of its silver content,
photographic film, especially bricks of film, appear particularly
suspect. Unfortunately, the new scanners are fogging undeveloped film
left in checked baggage. Unlike the airport x-ray equipment of the past
which had little or no effect on unprocessed film, the Photographic
& Imaging Manufacturers Association has tested the new CTX5000
scanners at the request of the FAA and determined they have the
potential to damage both unprocessed color and black and white film.
Processed film is unaffected.
Please follow these suggestions to help avoid damage to your film by these new scanners.
* Make sure there is no unprocessed film in your checked baggage.
* Carry your undeveloped film with you as carry-on baggage and ask for
hand inspection whenever possible.
* When carrying large amounts of unprocessed film, contact the airline
prior to your flight to arrange for a special baggage inspection. When
possible, send your film via a cargo carrier that will certify that the
film won't be x-rayed. The FAA and PIMA are currently working on
guidelines with respect to this situation.
Question
