film canister
Negative storage cylinder
A film canister is the small cylindrical container that holds a roll of photographic film, typically made of plastic with a snap-on lid.
Before digital photography, these canisters were ubiquitous—photographers carried them, labs returned processed negatives in them, and crafters repurposed the empties for storage.
The 35mm film canister became a minor cultural artifact: She kept her spare change in old film canisters.
