I once bought film on the meter and rolled it myself. In the end it didn't work out and I finally threw away a couple of meters because of passage of the expiration date. I don't know what this is with rolling your own film, but something has to be wrong with it. I know a couple of heavy users, photojournalists, but they don't do it and my local seller doesn't sell it often. Of course everyone has to do what suits him best, but I doubt it. If you're on location for a reportage have you filled enough film in advance?(posted 9137 days ago)
