I like to tag my digital photos with dates and places where they were taken and its difficult with film. While I can recall the place most of time by looking at the picture, telling date is very hard.
I send my films off in large batches to AG and get back just a set of developed negatives with their own reference numbers, so even if I did have notes on the canisters/spools they would get lost anyway.
With 35mm problem could be partly solved by using a waste frame to photograph a date written on a piece of paper. But event then o often use the same roll over several weeks depending on how much timeand inspiration I have.
I was thinking of keeping notes, but then how to identify an individual film? Just writing e.g. ColorPlus is going to be useless as I use a lot of those.
Has anyone come up with a reliable system?
