So if they aren't 220 only then I guess the question is, why not get a 120 back and shoot 120? It's kind of like being upset because it is nearly impossible to find 12-exposure rolls of 35mm film then, isn't it?

I think the analogy would be more like being upset because 36 exposure rolls were discontinued and all you can get now are the 12 exposure ones.

For someone shoptong a lot more exposures is easier.

Yes of course I had it backwards... duh.

I must say I used to prefer a short roll so I could finish it faster but now that I'm processing my own I sure like to fill up the reels! So I guess for processing too it would be faster to do 220 rolls. I didn't think of that...
