I too always use water as a stop bath for film--I've been doing that for over 50 years. For the last 10 or so years I've used citric acid as a stop bath for paper because I HATE the smell of vinegar. Before that I used boric acid for a while, but citric acid is much cheaper and it dissolves more easily in water.
