JJC 35mm film leader retriever
35mm
When to choose it
Use the three retractable blades to bring an inaccessible leader back through the slit in a 35mm cassette. This leaves the cassette intact, which is useful if you plan to feed the recovered leader into a compatible loading system.
Retrieve the leader with the remaining film inside the cassette. Once you begin pulling out exposed frames, work in total darkness.
