120/220 film case

[lee_travis1]

Greetings: I've been trying to find cases for exposed rolls of 120/220 film, but haven't had much luck. I have a few

nice plastic waterproof cases that each hold 4 rolls of film, but I can't seem to find them now. Does anyone know

where to find such a thing? Thanks, Lee Travis

I wrap my shot film in tinfoil then store it in the case a watch came in until I can have it developed. The case I found fits 8 rolls perfectly, and even has an O-ring (I think it was an Eddie Bauer watch). I can mail the whole thing to my lab and they return the case, I plastered it with return address stickers. If you're not going for pretty, I bet you have lots of containers around the house that would work great.

Those posted above work well. I use canisters from ADOX film, but these serve exactly the same purpose. From personal experience here in sunny Florida, I've found that It's a good idea to keep a handful of these on hand so that you have someplace to put your exposed rolls until you can develop them.

I usually just put multiple exposed 120 rolls in empty dog poop bags- these are little, black, opaque t-shirt bags:

But these cases are nice, too:

When I send film to Millers Pro Lab they supply them free, to send them the film in.

Empty M&M's mini tubes work fine for exposed film (but not for film still in the foil wrapper). Porter's has similar tubes (http://tinyurl.com/6a9vrv), execpt they are a bit wider so that they can take film with the wrapper still on, as well as containers that can hold 3 rolls of film at a time(http://tinyurl.com/3wnax8).

Up until about a year ago I could fine these in Camera shops in Tokyo:

but sadly, no longer...

The M&M cylinders are a little too large for me, and the colours too distracting...I just use several ziplock bags nested one inside the other.

I use a small digital P/S camera zip up case I bought for $15 at Ritz. It is a semi hard shell case, black, padded, holds 6

rolls of 120/220 film, has a belt loop, and is pretty well thermally insulated. The thing I like the most about it is the irony. It

has a metal plate on it that says "DIGITAL" and it is my film case.

What would really be neat is a Rambo style ammo chain loaded with T-Max and slung over the shoulder : )
