Wow, very helpful! Thanks so much
How about sharing how it works otherwise. What is the top right button for if you are facing the front of it?
Just a note, but every 120 camera uses the same system of take up spools. Its just how medium format roll film works. arguably, the one piece, sealed 35mm canister is much easier, and unless you process at home (I do), it creates a lot less waste. Still, all of this pales in comparison to sheet film, which is just a royal pain at times.
Haha, yea. I worked with sheet film once and after that I just thought to myself “this is not worth it!” It was such a pain to work with.
Yeah, its a pain, but the advantages lie in the humongoid size of the negative (or positive) For enlargements, you can make enormous prints that are completely grain free, and on a more weird note, because of the size, they can be contact printed without having to make an enlarged copy neg, which is helpful. a 6×6 image is cool, but it makes a rubbish carbon print, or cyanotype, or any other alt printing process
thanks bro! appreciate it.
