I can't think of any day when I've shot so many rolls that I actually needed a big plastic case to hold them. It's usually no more than 4 or 5 rolls, tops, and as Keith said, it's pretty easy to tell exposed from unexposed. Plus, I'd rather use the limited real estate in my bag for lenses or stuff like that.

Re: The whole leader out vs leader in thing - doesn't actually work for me, I leave the leaders out on my rolls cos I find it easier to load when I'm doing my own dev.
One of the other reasons I want some sort of case is because I don't carry my RF in a camera bag during the week, it gets thrown into my messenger bag which only has one main pocket. Throwing the rolls in loose means I'm constantly having them fall out and I'm always worried I'm going to lose them.

keep it in the canister and throw it in the bag (or pouch then into the bag).

It's unlikely that it'll be as nice as the fuji cases...I too have been looking for an alternative but I gave up my quest and stuck with ziplock bags.

I found two of these 70's Rowi canisters at the fleamarket.
They are nice. 6 rolls each, enough for a day, and fits nicely into a jacket-pocket.

I just leave the really narrow part of the film leader out and fold it hard'n'sharp. But I normally carry two rolls on me unless I have an actual shoot in mind, and one is in the camera, so I've got a pretty easy way of telling what's exposed and what's not

Film Case by malikmata52, on Flickr
I bought this film case about 20 years ago from Spiratone, a camera accessory store in Flushing, NY that went out of business many years ago. It can hold 4 rolls of 35mm film. It's waterproof and supposed to be x-ray proof too but I cannot confirm that.

The old, orange coloured, Agfacolor slide boxes will take six rolls of 135, using cardboard dividers to reduce rattling. The longer, often green coloured, slide boxes will take several rolls too, but in a single row. It seems like the width of a 35mm slide is just right for two rolls of 135, then the number of rolls you can fit in depends on the size and format of that particular container.
