Brownie Prep 1: Film

Based on my research I need 3 things to get started shooting with my brownies, well aside from the actual cameras. The first is film. Since I want to treat this as a marginally scientific experiment I decided to buy several different rolls of film so I can figure out what I like. The easiest film to get that can be made to work in the brownie's is 120. I ordered 7 rolls from B&H.

Black and White negative film (this is what I mostly hope to shoot with down the line so I can develop it myself)

This is what a roll of 120 looks like out of the package.

One tip I learned from my Dad is to keep my film in the fridge. So that is where it is hanging out waiting to be shot. Next up, what I need to prepare it to go into the 620 brownie.
