How long is a roll of camera film?

I am looking for the length of a "semi-standard" roll of camers film. About 27-30 exposures. Thanks.
I was wondering the length, in inches, ofa "semi-standard" roll of film. With something like 27-30 exposures.

Most 35mm roll film is either 24exp. or 36exp. you can get bulk film in 100ft or 150ft rolls. there is one old Nikon that I know of that had a 250ft bulk back. but that one is very rare to find and I don’t know if cannon ever made anything like that.

  3. 35 mm film generally comes in a 24 exposure roll. Depending how tightly your camera winds film, that could mean 24 to 27 frames.

    Thirty-six exposure film is also available, however not as readily. You used to be able to buy 12 exposure film, but I have not seen that in a while, unless you are shooting a medium-format camera.

    Also, if you are using a lot of film, bulk film can be loaded in any exposure increment needed from 5-40. A roll of bulk film comes in a 100 ft. length, and needs a bulk film loader to use, as well as reloadable cassettes.
