HI! The best place to put your film is in the freezer! Place it in a rubbermaid container and pop it in. While travelling I usually carry a cooler and put my film in freezer ziploc bags. Hope this helps!

according to kodak, you should store both unexposed and exposed film in the fridge. Don't know about the freezer. BUT I will say this: let your film warm up to room temp before loading it in the camera. Putting cool or freezing cold film in a hot camera can cause condensation to form. Could hurt the film and/or the camera. hth, lori
