Perfect

Works amazingly, great quality, good seal with the lid, develops the rolls inside evenly. Light maze is perfect, never gets any light inside to the film. Perfect, highly recommend.

I love this, tank you very much

I was nervous this wouldn't fit into my dark bag, which is rather small, but it does and it doesn't take up much more space than the smaller version. Probably best not to push my luck with the 5-reel tank tho.

Excellent product better than stainless steel tanks.

One reason: The speed of pouring the chemistry is unrivaled. Instead of 30 seconds it takes six. I've been developing film for over fifty years. I always used stainless tanks, since my Dad gave me his. I'm a wiz at loading reels. Never a mishap. I'd already bought the smaller version for two 35mm rolls but this allows me to process two 120 films. BTW-I also bought the Paterson Force Film Washer. Excellent pairing.

NO REELS!

So disappointed. It supposed to be with film reels. I purchased the 2 reels tank before and it came with REELS. There's nothing proving that it has no real this is so confusing. Paterson YOU SHOULD BE MORE CLEAR on this, cuz I don't have time to repurchase some reels again and wait till it comes to Saudi Arabia.

Great

Good quality, no leaks, love being able to develop 2 rolls of 120 at a time, the only downside is I wish it came with reels.

I would like to develop 2 rolls of 120 film at a time. If I get a 1 quart kit of chemicals will that be enough chemistry or do i need to buy a larger size of chemicals?
Asked by: Tyler
As in the previous answer two 120 rolls do require one liter of solution. A liquid developer that can be mixed more precisely would be easier to use.
