Storing Films

[iamawalkingparadox]

Hi guys. I'm new to film photography and I have just bought a few films in which I'm planning to use in a month's time. Should I store those films in the freezer, fridge or just anywhere that is room temperature?

If you will be using it in a few months time just store it in the dry cabinet.

For longer storage for example like 1-2 years, you can store it in the fridge. Please thaw it properly before use.

You can refer to the documents on film storage by kodak. Search with Google.

if you intent to use within a month, just keep it at a place is convenient to you, away from direct sunlight and hot place will do.
don't keep at a place than you might forgot about it.
Only professional grade film require to store in fridge.

I store in fridge to prolong the film life, put in ziplock bags help with the thawing (condensation) when you take it out.
