Complete Guide to 70mm Film

[film4Me]

Very interesting! I haven't come across these before. Being able to cut notches for any format is a great feature! What length of film can these hold?

A normal 220 length. 116 and 616 lengths fit comfortably in the reel.

Notches must be accurate. I file a little at a time, checking with film as I go.

So far I've filed extra notches for APS and 70mm.

Film Back is load with Type II Kodak Plus-X 1982 Vintage works like new stock so far for me. 24 Exposures loaded in a Kodak 70mm Cassette ready to go. I have plenty of Olde Paterson Reels, didn't mind at all to dedicate a few to 70mm developing. When I'm loading something I view as important to me, I am glad I have my permanently modified reels.
