Holly,

The film will be fine.  I use a lot of Konica 750 in 120 rolls and often
load it in full sunlight using just my back for shade, trying to keep the
sun out of the camera as the camera back is refitted.

Have had no problems with the film although sometimes seeing the full sun
even momentarily on the film as I quickly try to put the loaded back on the
camera does cause a furrowed brow.  The brow still has a few lines in it -
guess there's nothing I can do about that :-)


All the best,
