Jobo 1501 Developing Tank Reel

Switching from stainless steel to these plastic reels was a game-changer—the adjustable 35mm/120 design loads smoothly without any frustrating jams.

Finally, a reel that loads 120 film without fighting it—the adjustable pull-out design worked perfectly on my first try. Even after a few uses, the plastic feels solid and the grooves guide the film smoothly.

The adjustable mechanism clicks into place cleanly for both 35mm and 120, making swap between formats effortless. Loading my first roll of 120 felt much smoother than with my old plastic reels.
