5 Jobo ratcheting reels for 35 mm films (not adjustable for 120 format)

Those appear to be adjustable to 120.

Don,
The reels I used in my 2500 tanks were adjustable so I know how they should work if they are ambidextrous. If these are, I can't figure it out. I definitely don't want to overstate their capabilities. And I don't want to break one to find out.

You interested?
Dennis

Hi,
They just look exactly like what I have, which are adjustable from 135 to 127 to 120.

Dennis,

Do you see the one in the photo on the left side on the spool? If you take the spool in that orientation you can see in the photo and hold the left side in the left hand and the right side in the right hand, then turn the right side towards you (twist the Rt hand thumb towards your body). There's a slight catch and then the two sides will rotate so that the "key" that you can see in the track is now no longer visible in the slot and you'll be able to pull the two sides apart and then reverse the twist in a slot that spaces the sides properly for 120 film.

A person wanting to process 120 film will probably want to get the little red roll spacer tabs from B&H to divide two rolls on a spool, but otherwise, this set will get a lot of processing done.
