Re: Eclair Cameras: Associated dangers with sending exposed negative by mail?

[Mark <super16acl@aol.com>]

USE THE LEAD-WRAP STUFF --- the double strength kind.  It comes in very large 
rolls that may cost $200 or more(USD). Apparently even the airports admit 
that film at 400 ISO and above will fog ... so probably it will actually happen 
at lower speeds too. :-) 

I have a 1970s era continuous 16mm newsfilm processor that I may sell on Ebay 
in the months ahead; it takes 400' rolls, but it isn't set up for color 
negative. And it's hard enough SHOOTING a large movie project, let alone turning 
your garage or basement into a lab too! (I even have a 1200 foot contact printer 
that goes with it!)

Also, I recommend only using Federal Express if you want to be certain that 
it will get there, and in a timely matter. 

Mark.
