Re: So, how do *you* load your HIE

[Eric Boutilier-Brown <ebb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I regularly change my 35mm HIE in a generic changing bag, and never have
had any problems - in fact last summer I was very surprised. 

My main camera bag is black, and I had put the HIE in the front pouch - and
left it sitting for 30 minutes face up im blazing sunlight. When I got it
into the changing bag to load, the metal canister was hot (not warm) to thr
touch when I got it out of the plastic film container. I was pretty sure
the film was fogged beyond hope, but it was my last roll that day, so i
used it. It processed without a problem, and produced one of my best images
of the summer. THis is not endorsing cooking HIE before use, but it sure
surprised me that it wasn't fogged.
