Tested two 100ft rolls of 7219. Both rolls *DID NOT* come with black plastic bags.
Per the title, I conducted camera tests with two 100ft rolls of 7219. One thing that seemed out of place to me was the absence of the plastic light-tight black bags that Kodak daylight rolls are typically wrapped in after the box is opened.
I currently have the exposed film stored in its packaging, minus the black bags, with black cloth tape sealing the edges for protection. Hopefully, it's safe enough for shipping. I'll make a note to the lab I'm sending the film to about this.
Does anyone suppose this was a manufacturing/packaging mistake, or is this the new standard for all 100ft rolls today? I am curious because the last time I worked with daylight loads was last summer, and every roll I used was wrapped in its own black bag.
Addt'l: the 100ft spools are made of black plastic.
