Film cutter for 110 format (16mm)

• Cut your own 110 film: From common 120 or 35mm material when fresh 110 pocket film is no longer available. With the combo module, also Minox strips.
• Safety cover protects your fingers: The pressure cover locks the film flat on the guide and protects you from the open blades.
• Direct manual pull-through: Less prone to errors than complex crank systems and faster to handle.
• Standard razor blades: Standard double edge blades, always available and replaceable.

Compatibility

The cutting modules produce unperforated film. This works with cameras that control film transport by friction — not by gears that engage the perforation holes.

Suitable models:

• Pentax Auto 110 & Auto 110 Super
• Canon 110ED & 110FD
• Rollei A110 & E110
• Voigtländer Vitoret 110 EL
• Minox 110S (varies, please test)

Also fits 16mm subminiature cameras: The unperforated strip also runs in classic submini cameras that advance film without perforation — loaded into the camera's own cassette (e.g. RADA):

• Edixa 16 (all models, incl. Wirgin Edixa 16)
• Alka 16 & Franka 16 (RADA cassette)
• Fotex MiniFex
• GaMi 16 (Galileo)

Not suitable for the Rollei 16 — it needs the perforation to advance the film.

How to test your camera:
Open the back (without film), operate the transport, and press the shutter release. If the shutter fires, your camera is compatible. If it blocks, your camera definitely needs perforation holes.

Description

The film cutter makes your 110 pocket camera usable again, even if no ready-made 110 film is available anymore. From affordable standard material — 120 medium format or 35mm small format — you cut the suitable 110 strips yourself; with the combo module, also Minox.

The system is modular and designed for safety. You insert the film, place the cover (which gently fixes the film), and pull the material manually through the blades. The result is clean cut edges without expensive special tools.

The cutter is part of our 110 pocket film system and our Minox 8x11 subminiature system: cut film, load cassette, develop, and scan — all from one source. More about this in the overview of the 110 system and the 110 guide as well as in the overview of Minox 8x11 and the Minox guide.
