towards the end you will notice the loader is lighter and the film has a smaller curl. At that point, wind a titch more carefully and when the frame counter on the loader stops clicking, stop winding and you should have some leader poking out.I've been working my way through my first bulk roll and I think I'm perhaps getting near the end of it. I was wondering if the end was attached to the spool it came on so I know when I'm out of film or will the loader just stop clicking and I'll have likely rolled the end of the film into the cassette necessitating reloading the last casette in a dark bag or buying a leader retriever?
That must have been a very old Arista.Some bulk loads are coreless which should have been noticeable when loaded into the loader. My bulk load of Arista (Ilford Pan F Plus) had no core. Even when there is a core the film may not be attached to it with tape. So there may be no tension when the end of the roll is reached. It pays to feel around as you are loading the loader. You can still check this.
Kodak does.I haven't bought a bulk roll in 25 years do they still come 8n metal cans?
This is exactly word by word how it ends on me!It ends suddenly and abruptly.
How does a bulk film roll end?
In the rain. Alone.
