Hello. I bought these 10 canisters from a Ukraine seller, they are all-metal construction (plastic spool) with push-on caps, and nice thick felt that is securely attached. They are great, however, I can not use them in most of my cameras. The caps add about 5mm to the diameter and are just a wee bit snug in my Leicas (IIIf, IIIc, II, M3, M2, and MP). I have used them to great success in my Nikon F. I will send them with plastic film canisters if requested. Buyer pays shipping costs, USA only. Thanks. $30.00. SOLD! Thanks
I have a batch of these; they're a joy to load, but I havn't tried to use them in a camera yet. Hope I don't regret buying them (but I don't have a Leica or even a Fed, so might be okay).
Yea, I think the loading system that is similar to SLR would be fine. Was plenty of room in the Nikon for example. Kiev 2 looks fine judging from the current images in classifieds. I was just looking at them wondering the same thing. The Leicas are tight and the bottom cap has a high risk of being left behind.
