Especially with Kodak Gold 200 in 120 format and CineStill trying to bring back 220 film!<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Classic Camera Revival - Episode 127 - The 120mm Files\" allowtransparency=\"true\" height=\"150\" width=\"100%\" style=\"border: none; min-width: min(100%, 430px);\" scrolling=\"no\" data-name=\"pb-iframe-player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.podbean.com\/player-v2\/?i=3smti-12248a7-pb&#038;from=pb6admin&#038;share=1&#038;download=1&#038;rtl=0&#038;fonts=Arial&#038;skin=1&#038;font-color=auto&#038;logo_link=episode_page&#038;btn-skin=3\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>In full disclosure, 120mm film did exist, but it&#8217;s more closely tied to a large format as 120mm is 12cm which is about 4.5 inches. Surprisingly some films have the 120mm measurement; there are 1898\u2019s 113 (90\u00d7120mm) and 114 (120x90mm) formats. If you&#8217;re already seeing something and that these roll films are all numerical formats, with the first roll film released in 1881 being 101, going all the way to 119, which means that 120 film were first released in 1901 following the sequence already laid out.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The &#8220;Texas Leica&#8221; &#8211; Fujica GW690<\/strong><br \/>\nAfter borrowing the GSW690II from James, John has become firmly attached to the 6&#215;9 format and recently picked up a GW690. Despite having a slightly narrower focal length, the big 6&#215;9 negative help give a sense of space. Great for landscape and urbanscape work. Of course, the rising price of film and only getting eight shots on a roll make him stop and think more. These cameras aren&#8217;t cheap, but you can often get a good deal if you keep your nose to the ground. If you are looking, don&#8217;t look at the body&#8217;s cosmetics, but pay close attention to the glass.<\/p>\n<p><figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/senpatientulo\/50430845436\/\" title=\"&quot;Texas Leica&quot; - New Toy in the House\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/50430845436_db4ff46635_b.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"829\" alt=\"&quot;Texas Leica&quot; - New Toy in the House\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo By: senpatientulo &#8211; Used Under: CC0 1.0 Universal (CC0 1.0) &#8211; Public Domain Dedication<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/johnmeadows\/52065226579\/\" title=\"Distillery District\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/52065226579_5eacd94beb_b.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"690\" alt=\"Distillery District\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fujica GW690 &#8211; EBC Fujinon 1:3.5 f=90mm &#8211; Fomapan 100<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/johnmeadows\/52065226584\/in\/dateposted\/\" title=\"Rivers Street Bridge\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/52065226584_bdc209570d_b.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"692\" alt=\"Rivers Street Bridge\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fujica GW690 &#8211; EBC Fujinon 1:3.5 f=90mm &#8211; Fomapan 100<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>\n<p><strong>The Ideal Print Size &#8211; 6&#215;7<\/strong><br \/>\nIf your final choice is to print your work to 8&#215;10 through digital or traditional means, look no further than the 6&#215;7 format.

Especially when paired with a perfect compact body. His first step into the 645 format came in the Pentax 645. A solid SLR non-system camera offers plenty of automation around exposure settings and automatic film advance, plus a great optics set. But what sold him is the 35mm focal length, which presents a wide-angle offering in the negative size. Great for those abandoned buildings he took the camera through for many years.<\/p>\n<p><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/22988445390\/\" title=\"Classic Camera Revival - Episode 11 - The Mystery Camera Challenge\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/5650\/22988445390_2a891819ca_b.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"586\" alt=\"Classic Camera Revival - Episode 11 - The Mystery Camera Challenge\"><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/22581549360\/\" title=\"Return to NARC\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/5735\/22581549360_548456773b_b.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"715\" alt=\"Return to NARC\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pentax 645 &#8211; SMC Pentax A 645 35mm 1:3.5 &#8211; Kodak Portra 400 @ ASA-800 &#8211; Processed By: Burlington Camera<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/22594397416\/\" title=\"The First Block\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/5688\/22594397416_cff4daf528_b.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"727\" alt=\"The First Block\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pentax 645 &#8211; SMC Pentax A 645 35mm 1:3.5 &#8211; Kodak TMax 100 @ ASA-32 &#8211; Kodak Xtol (1+1) 8:45 @ 20C<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/14201399443\/\" title=\"Das FunHaus\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/7428\/14201399443_32923521ce_b.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"782\" alt=\"Das FunHaus\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pentax 645 &#8211; SMC Pentax A 645 35mm 1:3.5 &#8211; Kodak Plus-X Pan (PXP) @ ASA-80 &#8211; PMK Pyro (1+2+100) 10:00 @ 20C<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/10705951364\/\" title=\"USS New Jersey - BB-62\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/3810\/10705951364_66a1671523_b.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"737\" alt=\"USS New Jersey - BB-62\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pentax 645 &#8211; SMC Pentax A 645 35mm 1:3.5 &#8211; Efke R50 @ ASA-50 &#8211; PMK Pyro (1+2+100) 8:00 @ 20C<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>\n<p>After selling off the Pentax 645 (a mistake, but it did go to a good home), the urge to maintain the format stayed strong, and I ended up with a Mamiya m645 and that 35mm focal length again.
