120 film
Hi,
I found an old Rolleiflex lying around my parents basement. I believe it is an Automat and takes 120 film. Any suggestions for where to buy film and process B&W and Color prints? Thanks, Marty |

Thanks, Marty Any photo shop should have 120 film and should be able to tell you which labs process 120 film. Congratulations on your find. That is a very nice camera. It will probably outlive all of us. Francis A. Miniter |

Greetings there;
120 rollfilm is still very much available! As a medium-format photographer, I of course use it all the time. There is a good selection available in most of the larger photographic stores: to start off and check out your camera I would suggest Kodak Portra 160VC colour negative film - since processing will be faster and cheaper than some slide films and most black-and-white films, and you'll also be able to observe any chromatic abberations. That's a nice old camera - worth quite some money, I think, so it's worthwhile maintaining (and using). My regards - F.C. Trevor Gale. hubbardston wrote: Hi, I found an old Rolleiflex lying around my parents basement. I believe it is an Automat and takes 120 film.

I highly recommend Unique photo,.... www.uniquephoto.com pricing on par with B&H sometimes better,.... better faster service only draw back,....perhaps a $100 minimum,....but then you can shot that in a weekend ;-)???? -- LF Website @ http://members.verizon.net/~gregoryblank "To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public."--Theodore Roosevelt, May 7, 1918 |

Thanks, Marty Depending on what Automat you have, McKeown's Cameras lists the value of it between $120 and $400, so take care of it. Dick Automat...why Horn & Hardart of course. Oh, I've been waiting a long, long time to be able to use that one. Best Regards, Ketchup Soup |
