Don't be ridiculous! You made that up didn't you?! :-)
Sigh.

Now where can we find the screw top metal cans the film used to come in. I
could really find some uses for them.
So you remember too eh Andrew? >:) Back to topic,
why not just roll your own? Much cheaper, and you can
do 8 frames if you want...I commonly do 12 frame loads
just so I can try out N+1 N-1 experiments on different bodies,
films (if I have the cash to bleed for a "big" roll of "new" stuff)
'course so far I only do this with B/W, but can't you get color
stuff in bulk?
Bill >; P
Yes, you can. Most come in 50 foot rolls instead of the 100 foot B&W
rolls. I wonder if it is because of the added cost, or because of storage
times (of a big roll) that would result in color shifts.
