How to EASILY Retrieve a Film Leader End from 35mm Canister in 3 Different Ways
Показать описание
In this video I demonstrate three different ways how to retrieve or get the leader end back out of your roll of 35mm film canister that has been rewound back in to the canister. In all cases, you're going fishing!
The 3 methods shown in the video are:
1. Using a "film picker" or "leader retriever" tool
2. How to use double sided tape
3. How to use a wet a negative strip
-
Sequence for each method:
0:40 Using a retriever tool
1. Hold the retriever so the smaller flexible tongue is on top
2. Slide the large back tongue into the canister
3. Slide the top smaller tongue in, but in the retracted position
4. (Make sure the rigid back shoulder overlaps the canister)
5. Hold the roll to your ear and spin CCW until you hear a click
6. Keep tension on the spool at that point
7. Release the tension as you slowly pull the leader out
2:17 Using double-sided tape
1. Take an old flat negative a few inches long
2. Cut a section of tape and place it at one end of the negative
3. Insert the negative tape side into the canister (about 1")
4. Slowly roll the inner spool CCW until it pulls the strip in
5. Keep tension on the spool at that point
6. Release the tension as you slowly pull the leader out
4:47 Using a wet negative
1. Take an old flat negative a few inches long
2. Lick or wet one end of the negative
3. Insert the negative tape side into the canister (about 1")
4. Slowly roll the inner spool CCW until it pulls the strip in
5. Keep tension on the spool at that point
6. Release the tension as you slowly pull the leader out
Things to watch out for:
- If you use the 'wet negative' method, use a different section for a new roll. (I just cut back the wet slobbered-on part to a dry area).
- Don't use thick double-sided tape, but instead a thinner scotch tape or "Frost King" window sealing tape works well.
Happy fishing!

Hi there. I'm Chris. Film is more fun is a place where I share about whatever busted up old camera I'm currently shooting and tinkering with, or my meanderings in film photography. It would be pretty rad if you said what's up. I'm 99% friendly. Definitely do that. Disclaimer: If you want technical proficiency go watch 'The Art of Photography' (love that show). These videos are more like an elderly person navigating a tv clicker.
