What a great idea. Waiting in anticipation.......

Do you have M&Ms in the UK? They sell the candies in a tube that's just about perfect for two rolls of 120. Considering the volume they do the tube must be pretty common.

Schlapp · Jan 26, 2006

They come in a soft packet here. Had a packet yesterday

Was this a container to store 120 film after exposure? Porter's carries them

I hope this is what you are looking for. $3.50 for three.

Those we get here are to short for two films, they are approx 1½film long
If they could store two films I probably wouldn't be tired of M&Ms now
What one will do for photography.

Wow, they are .30 ea at J&C. Cheaper than buying M&M's!

How much with M&Ms ?

I use the J and C tubes and wouldn't go out without them. Really nice to keep film in while out and about in bright, sunny Florida.

I had to double-check when I saw the price of these sometime last week. They ARE cheap, but I am not complaining!

Don,

I buy M&Ms in bulk and reload. Cheaper that way. Sure, I lose a few to scratches and breakage, but in the end it's still less costly.

But they won't print swear words on them. What the &^$%*!!!

I've been using these containers for years - since you could buy such things in camera stores ... :rolleyes:

Dave Miller · Jan 26, 2006

I buy mine from 7 day shop.com They are black medical sample containers with a snap lid that happen to hold a 120 film comfortably. Very useful for keeping exposed rolls dark and dry.

jon from jandc may share the information about their supplier of these tubes

It would be great if Ilford adopts those tubes for their MF films, I could really use them here in Greece. If only I could buy some from around here...

Can you wait until I buy a couple dozens?

Got your email, it was JandC Classic 35mm 200. Will you get any more soon? I'll package up an order with some paper and film.

haris · Jan 26, 2006

Simon, my question is, will all Ilford partners be able to offer those canisters when/if Ilford start to deliver them?. I belive I was first who mentioned those canisters in thread about Perceptol avaliability (thread in which you first time appeared on this forum). I am asking this because I would like not to be in situation to buy canisters anywhere other than atmy Ilford supplier. Can I send you PM with name of my suplier and get your answer specifically for theire situation? (I would ask publically, but jandc could be angry at me again for mentioning competition...

Kevin Caulfield · Jan 26, 2006

Rollei R3 uses the plastic container. It is black and very heavy duty.

I could buy some from JandC and ship them to you. I was going to get some for myself anyway. PM me if you need this.

We ship to Greece all the time. We even speak the language.
