magazine

The term magazine rang a bell, so I checked up and found the following amongst others:

"Kombi" meant that the camera's film magazine could be loaded with a developed film and then be used as film viewer (graphoscope).

"A film magazine contains a roll of film wound on a core with a journal rotatable in a split bearing"

"The camera equipment carried by Apollo 12 consisted of one 70-millimeter ... Maurer cameras weighed 2.8 pounds each, with a 130-foot film magazine attached"

Looks like 120 refers to the length of the film loaded into the magazine itself.

"A method for monitoring the amount of unexposed photographic film remaining in a motion camera film magazine that includes..."

"CNET's comprehensive Mamiya 120 Roll Film Magazine - camera film back - medium coverage: unbiased reviews, exclusive video footage and buying guides"

Hope this is of some use!
