Response to Best reels for 120

from Paul D. Robertson (proberts@clark.net)
Paul Klingaman-

Are you saying that you don't ratchet the reel at all, but pull the film through it? My problem with the Jobo reels is that when loading them by moving half the reel at a time (per the instructions that came with them), my 120 film always seems to get askew at the part where the film sticks out, then a corner gets caught and wrinkled slightly. about 1 out of every 5 goes well, the other 4, 2 of them will recover from being off-track the first or second try, and two will take a while to get on.

I'd happily sacrifice a roll to the film gods if it meant successive correct loads in the future!

Paul
