Someone dispell this FUD for me?? Thanks.
Any explanation as to why?
This is pure, unadulterated, Urban Legend. Look up professional 35mm
films. All of them are 36 exposure *only* except Kodak's color negative
"Law Enforcement" film (LE100/400/800) which comes in 12 and 24 exp. short
rolls. Also used by insurance adjusters. LE100/400/800 are the old
Ektapress PJ100/400/800 films; compare their data sheets! [If you liked
Ektapress, buy the "LE" films.]
Been using 36 exp. rolls for some time and cannot tell any difference
between them and the occasional 24 exp. rolls used when I cannot get the
longer ones. Interesting that you would only find the longer rolls in
Taiwan. I can only find the shorter ones locally for consumer films.
If you put a plain red brick on top of a power meter, it slows the meter
down and reduces the electric bill. Pangs of conscience doing this? Use
half a brick.
