Say goodbye to opening film canisters with bottle openers! The ADOX Film Retriever is the clean, reusable way to retrieve your 35mm film leader when it’s been fully rewound.

With its bright, easy-to-spot design and reliable sliding mechanism, this retriever is intuitive even for beginners and a time-saver for pros. Ideal for home darkrooms, camera stores, labs, or your gear bag.
Slide both arms to the start position (tips retracted).
