How advisable is it to keep an Oly in a blazingly hot car trunk? What film
will tolerate this abuse? Any thoughts?
Personally, I drive a van with a cooler in the back, and I can
carry a camera loaded with HIE all summer without excessive heat
exposure.
Something I did on a previous car, and intend eventually to do on
my current van, is install a small ventilation blower in the
floor, to exchange hot interior air for the cooler air in the
shade beneath the van while parked. My previous van had a roof
vent instead, but in the Pacific Northwet, vents that face up
always become roof drains. I expect a vent system in the floor
of the trunk would work well on a car, too.
