Alright, so it is Kodak licensed, and a film case. Still, I just picked up one and it is surprisingly nice. Thick metal, thick paint, really solid. 5 individual compartments for 35mm film. Lovely vintage look. Also in Ektachrome colours, and plain silver. Maybe also black.

$25 at my local shop.

Slick................I've got to get one. Noticed these are being offered on eBay in different colors. A bit pricey but a gotta have (if you were ever into Kodak film products)!! I still have some Kodachrome to put in them (the red and yellow one).

Thanks for that tip.

Oh yeah, I've seen that on Don's Photo Equipment youtube channel not that long ago

Japan Camera Hunter sells film cases in other colors.

I bought the JCH five 135 roll case in black.
I'm looking forward to a day I might expect to use five rolls of film...

You are so mean! :lol

I keep my 35mm and 120 format film in old 1960's era metal film canisters. Made by Agfa, they still seal well and are quite compact.

Having said that I will look into getting several of the 120/135 cases. They look handy for keeping film in the fridge, my current film fridge is filled mostly with cardboard cartons which turn to mush when they thaw out.

I have the yellow / red one. Analogue Wonderland has been selling them for a while. They are very nice and stay shut in a stuffed bag.

Thanks to both of You!
They look great. I will have to get one of those.
I think I like the yellow and red one.

FYI — I just purchased 2 of them. A red/yellow and a blue/yellow.
Got them from amazon for $25 each, Prime free shipping. Plus Tax.

Nice! Yeah that is a better deal than the one on ebay.

It's $25 for the small, $30 for the bigger one. So much nicer than the plastic cases, this feels like it will last a life time, and age really well.

Huss · 07-23-2021, 09:04 AM

I just picked up the big one - blue yellow - by mistake! I wanted to buy the small one as a gift, and didn't notice as I was in a rush. Now I am thinking of keeping the larger one and gifting the smaller one!
Nice to be able to hold 5 35mm rolls, and 4 120 rolls in one box.

$22 to ship which makes these plastic cases more expensive than the metal Kodak ones.

**AgentL** · 07-23-2021, 10:05 AM

I saw these a while back - looks nice!

Freestyle Photo has some, a couple bucks more than what JCH is selling but shipping is cheaper (since its not coming directly from Japan): Search Results | Freestyle Photo & Imaging

Japan Camera Hunter sells film and many film photography related items as well.

I'm a cheapskate too. I bought my like-new JCH film case from KEH for $10.00.
