RETO Film Case, Yellow Lid, Silver Body / 35 mm / 120 film
The body is made of aluminum and the cap is made of steel, KODAK film cans were widely used in the 1970s for film packaging, only later changed to grey-top plastic containers. The canisters were painted colorful and carried a lot of joyful memories. It was indeed a big part of film photography history. We are inspired by the selection of materials and colors and wish to recreate a new version of the KODAK Film Case, only to make it even more practical and stylish.
Our Review
RETO Kodak Film Case (Yellow Lid, Silver Body) — the "Radiant" colorway with the same rugged protection
The gist: A pop of Kodak-yellow on an otherwise understated silver body — a middle ground between the loud heritage colorway and the all-silver version for travelers who want a bit of personality without going full retro.
- Metal construction: aluminum body, steel cap — tougher than the cardboard box film usually ships in, useful for checked luggage or rough overland travel.
- Holds 5 rolls: RetoPro's own spec puts it at 148 x 56 x 47mm and 160g, covering 35mm or 120 format rolls for a full shoot day.
- Two-tone finish: the yellow lid on a silver body makes it easy to spot at the bottom of a packed bag while staying less flashy than the full yellow/red heritage look.
- Protects against moisture and light: Exibart Street's coverage notes the case keeps rolls "dry and clean," a real concern on humid or rainy travel days.
Exibart Street quotes RetoPro's own framing of the redesign: making the classic Kodak case "even more practical and stylish" than the 1970s original it's based on.
Best for: travelers who want a durable, easy-to-spot case without committing to the full retro color scheme. Skip it if: you're chasing the most authentic '70s look — the all-yellow/red Classic Case leans harder into that nostalgia. Runs ~$23 — check the current price before buying.
