eTone 35mm Film Picker 135 Roll Film Extractor Film Lead Retriever Roll Film Tools

I was testing a new camera when it auto-rewound the roll into the canister/cassette. With film being so expensive these days, this was a justified purchase and it worked to perfection. Took a few tries, but I got it.

Easy way to get your used film out of the container once it has been exposed and wound back in. I get the film tab out prior to putting the container into a darkbag, prior to transferring it to the developing container.

Works well. The tongues could be a little firmer

It worked almost perfectly until one day it just didn't after barely two months of use and trying for hours on separate occasions. The plastic tongues that come in contact with the film leader had started to show scratches as a sign of intense wear. I'm not sure if that's what's causing the tongues not to catch the film as you pull it out.

Managed to break a film when putting into Camera and then stupidly wound it fully back into the cassette, so thought I would try one of these before throwing the film away like I would’ve done years ago. Should’ve bought one years ago! Read the instructions, watch the video and unbelievably On the second try pulled the film out without any problems at all so absolutely Great piece of kit for the money
