I found the Hewes reel for 120mm film to be effective and straight forward to use.

Great reel for 120 and easy to roll. Yes it is pricey but Hewes makes quality. I have read other reviews where people say that the cheaper reels are a pain to roll the film on. Not so with these. Highly recommend!

Asked by: chang
No, steel reels and jobo tanks do not work together. You would need a steel tank for this.

question

Hi, I've read in a forum that this reel is compatible with Paterson tanks. Is that the case? Thanks!
Asked by: Michael
Not sure about this, could be true; I have the matching metal tank, so that's what I use.

question

Can this reel be loaded with more than one roll of film ?
Asked by: Faisal M.
Not at the same time. It is very re-usable, but only holds a single roll of 120 per use.
