When to choose it

The PTP115 is sized for either two 35mm rolls or one 120 or 220 roll. If you shoot both widths, compare the tank body capacity with the reel settings before assuming the same number of rolls fits at each setting.

Fit the reels onto the center column for the manufacturer's light-trap configuration. The listing's structured volume and maker's batch notes differ. Use the tank's current instructions for working volume.
