Exactly what I needed for developing black and white film at home.

I use to unload my Holgas, which prevents oh something like 2/3 of the light leak problems. Bought it to replace the same bag that finally, after a couple of decades, began to lose elasticity in the arm-holes.

This bag is well built and its size is perfect. You can place the medium format camera and double size developing tank inside and there is still more than enough space to work.

I bought these for my high school classroom. These are constructed with thick, sturdy fabic and should hold up to years of heavy use. I expecially like the velcro closure in lieu of the older models that had an outside second zipper.

I have very small wrists, so I was glad the sleeves were snug. I found the bag roomy and easy to maneuver in.

the bag is big enough to fit everything you need to load your tank or work on undeveloped film.

I recommend it to everyone who doesn't have a space for a darkroom but still wants to develop his own film.

The bag is of good quality, just very hard to put your arms in and out.

This bag has a great feel to it, and I'm very pleased not to have the rubberised type of bag. I don't think I'd have any issues with catching fabric inside as mentioned in other reviews. The bag's very spacious. I don't think I'd need larger unless I had a large box pinhole camera or something. Great bag.

I purchased this changing bag for my "film developing kit in a box." I do not have access to a full-time darkroom, so having this lets me develop film easily at home, in hotel rooms while on a job, etc.

This bag is really well-made with good-quality materials and components. It fits my Paterson three-roll tank just fine, and I can easily load three 35mm or two 120 reels in the bag. My only (minor) gripe is that I have pretty thick wrists, so I wish there was an adjustment mechanism for the elastic cuffs. Other than that, I'm happy!

I like it, I think it works very well and does the job excellently. It's big enough to fit the full Super System 4 Paterson tank, reels, scissors, and everything needed to load up a roll of 35mm or 120/220 film, with a little room to spare. It is not over-sized and folds neatly into the slim cardboard packaging that comes with it.

It is a little awkward to put your hands into the bag, the cuffs are a bit tight. I also wish it had a double zipper instead of a single zipper with velcro flaps (from a design/styling point of view). And as another reviewer pointed out, the fabric tends to drape over what you are doing in the bag. This is mostly not an issue except when cutting the roll from the spool, as I'm worried I may clip the bag by mistake.

Overall, these are small nitpicks and the bag works fully up to standard, so it's hard to complain. I also think it's good value for the money, so I highly recommend getting it.

Used this item to change Polaroid film in camera to a different film. B&W to Color mid pack. works well, easy and no film exposed.

I use this bag to load two 120 stainless steel reels along with one 35mm stainless steel reel. Most of the time I'm sitting on my living room floor to load the film. Never a problem having enough room. In fact, I lay everything out inside the bag, zip it up, fold over the flap, insert my hands and arms, and I'm ready to load film. The bag is light tight, material is heavy duty, and there is pleny of room. The bag also holds a crease. I like to "tent" the bag at the point where I'm loading film and the material stays upright. Other recommendations and affortability made this bag my choice. I'm glad that I read the other reviews.

Works well

I moved and am without a darkroom in my house. I've never loaded film in a bag before, but have found this product to work just great for loading film for processing.

Good size for larger format cameras, but also works great to roll up 35mm film after using it in a Holga.

A great product! Never worry about unwanted exposure again!! Convenient and easy to carry around -- folds up to a compact size! A must have!

I moved up from a smaller changing bag which I found to be too small for loading 120 film into a tank. This bag is huge by comparison and has plenty of room to move things out of the way when working inside of it. The fabric is also stiff enough that it stays put when it is pushed out of the way. (A good thing when you're using scissors!) I like the single zipper with an overlapping flap that's velcroed closed. I feel that this is more light tight than the double zipper system of the old bag. The inner sleeves also provide greater assurance that no light will leak into this bag when you're using it.

Works and stores well - Nice double protected arm openings - ensures no light can creep in. It doesn't sweat like the old rubberized ones do. Only catch, one has to be careful to make sure the zipper is completely closed and the velcro tab are closed and it is folded over precisely. No problem for professionals working in a professional manner. I have used many different ones before and I like this one the best even though it is a tad heaver than the other ones.

works great, roomy bag with enough space to work. Using with photo paper, large format film and pinhole cameras- great for changing in the field. No light leaks!

This is an awesome changing bag, the arm bands are nice and tight--no light is going to leak in this baby! Totally easy to clean and store and big enough to change quite a bit of film all at once.
