What photo film and paper is lurking in your household appliances?

[John Kasaian]

I put my new box of Fomabron N111 in the freezer and out of curiosity took an inventory of what is lurking in there.
What else do you do in 108 deg weather, but stand in front of an open freezer door for as long as you can justify doing so? I was quite astonished! A lot of stuff I thought I had---wasn't there (like a mountain of APHS, Ilford FP-4+ and Fp-5+ and what happened to all the 5x7 stuff?) and some of the stuff that was in there I didn't even know I had---what a nice surprise!
Here's whats in the ol' Maytag:

Paper:
Foma Fomabron N111 Glossy---100sheets 8x10
Arista Classic G2 Glossy-------250 sheets 8x10(this is the same as Ilford Galerie)
Kodak AZO G2-----------------25 sheets 8x10
Kodak AZO G3-----------------50 sheets 8x10

Film:
Arista.eduUltra 100 iso--------200 sheets 8x10(this is the same as Fomapan 100)
Kodak TMY--------------------25 sheets 8x10
Kodak TXT--------------------50 sheets 8x10
plus several rolls of 9" and 5" wide Kodak b&w aerial film

What have you got next to your Eskimo Pies and Popsicles?

Hi John,

My freezer is packed almost solid with;

Ilford Fp4, Hp5 4x5 5x7 8x10
Ilford Pan F 50 (120)
Ilford HP5 35 mm

Many boxes of Fuji Velvia, Provia 4x5

Decreasing boxes of Kodak E100VS-no more readyloads!

Maybe soon Ilford 12x20-- No camera yet!

My wife works for Kodak!

Good shooting,

Also frozen, beneath the photographic stuff: A side of White Park beef (yum!). Enough quart yogurt containers of chicken, beef, and turkey stock to float the carrier Enterprise.

I don't have the time or patience to do a complete inventory of my two photo freezers, but I can tell you there are several hundred sheets of Polymax Fineart in 11x14 and 16x20 sizes and ample supply of TMY in 5x7. What might be interesting to those who remember the good old days, is that I also have most of a brick of Kodachome 64-120. The last processing run for this size was over ten years ago! I also remember seeing most of a brick of Panatomic-X in 135. I also have a box of Neofin Blau that I recall did magical stuff with Pan-X exposed in the Leica I no longer own, but I don't think I'll ever mess with it again.

fun!

I just took a look in the bottom drawer of the fridge and found....

two 100 sheet boxes of HP5+ in 4x5
25 rolls of 35mm about evenly distributed between Kodak, Fuji and Ilford.


the paper is in the closet - no room in the fridge and there's half a box of 320TXP in the cupboard....

I've got three freezers occupied around the country just in case california slides off into the ocean. It'd be too dangerous to open the little film freezer in the kitchen as it's stuffed.
Tons of Velvia in every format.
Lots of HSI in 4x5
Konica 750 ir in 120
Efke 25 up to 8x10, lots in 120
APX 100 in 4x5
APX 25 in 120
APX 25 bulk spools
Scala in 120
Tech Pan in 4x5
plenty of other goodies
