Film is already frozen up to well over 50 deg C. You mean cold
store.

One rule of thumb (and probably more myth than fact) is that for
every 10=B0C
below fridge temp, the storage life of unexposed slide film is
doubled. So at
-17=B0C the storage life would be something on the order of 10 years.

Maybe I did mean frozen then?
I was just quoting what the magazine said.

It'll be interesting to see what replaces it. Currently you flick
through a magazine and nearly all the shots (especially landscapes) are
on Velvia 50. I've been thinking about trying it, and only put off by
the fact that it is a transparency film and I have zero equipment to
handle transparancies. But I've just got a new scanner that can take
them, so maybe I'll take the plunge.
