Right- but Nicky said he estimated 5 rolls and kevin estimated 12 rolls and i see online an estimate of 10 rolls...
I wondered if anyone knows which of these numbers it actually is- or how to calculate it...

One 35mm slide film is about 1.3meters long, which roughly equates to five meters of Super 8, whereas a roll of Super 8 is 15 metres long. That means a 5 litre kit would process about twenty rolls of Super 8 and a one litre kit only about four. (Correct me if I've blundered with the sums!)

However I suppose it could have shifted and re-shifted in the tank during the reversal process? I don't know if this will help but the brown bits aren't as visible on the lighter (outdoor images) but are worse on the indoor images. For example one roll of film (100D) was used indoors and it was inevitably very dark anyway. The brown transparent layer seemed much more prominent on these darker images and was much more noticeable.
