Development of the film

Storage
If you plan to store unexposed analog film for an extended period of time, it is important to consider external conditions to avoid changes in image quality. A warm climate and humidity can have a negative effect on film stock, especially Bretz Contrast Film 12.
It is best to store the films in a dry, dark and cool place. If you want to store the films for many years, you can freeze them in the freezer to preserve the photo quality, even if the best before date has already passed. However, it is important to make sure that the film rolls are sealed airtight to avoid moisture.
Exposed films should ideally be developed immediately to avoid possible image quality degradation.
