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

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.

Depending on what Automat you have, McKeown's Cameras lists the value of
it between $120 and $400, so take care of it.

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.

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 ;-)????

Automat...why Horn & Hardart of course. Oh, I've been waiting a long,
long time to be able to use that one.

Main Photo & Imaging Service in Santa Ana, CA sells the film and processes
it there in their own lab. Website: www.mainphoto.com. They have been in
