Film
1) B II film sounds like "brownie 2", i. e. 120 film, doesn't it? I'm not sure this is correct. 2) Is is safe to assume that a 120 film camera will allways accept 620 film? Was there really a different version needed to use 620 film?

- I think that B2 was the name of the 120 film in Germany, a name at least used by Agfa and Zeiss Ikon, but I am not completely certain and that would need confirmation. I faintly remember having read that B1 and A2 were also film formats (something like 127 and 117 film, I think), again this needs to be confirmed.
- The 620 spool is thinner and slightly shorter, and the holes at both ends are smaller: the key that goes in the spool's holes needs to be specially adapted. I think that some cameras could use both spools, but not all of them can. :--Rebollo fr 05:41, 27 June 2006 (EDT)
