What about 360€? I am able to split the batch, but have in mind that international shipping is from 10-15€ upwards according to number of boxes.
Thanks

can it be used in 120 cameras like a Kodak medalist if I respool it onto a 620 spool? what about a yashica mat?

Sorry, I have no experience with any of 620 camera. 220 is simply twice the length of 120, so if the camera can take as twice as more frames on the film, then maybe?

I have been using 220 film in Yashica Mat124, which is designed to take it. It is equipped with rotary pressing plate and has counter up to 24 frames 6x6cm. I just don't shoot color slides anymore as I focus on BW.

The difference between 120 and 220 film is that there isn't backing paper on all the film with 220. Only the beginning and the end of the roll. Otherwise it wouldn't fit on the same spool and into the camera. So you can't respool it onto 620 unless you cut the film in half and make your own backing paper.

If attempting to use 220 in a 620 camera (respooled, of course), I would expect problems with pressure plate and with frame spacing. In a really simple red-window camera, it might not make a difference.

I would love to buy your whole batch, but I already have more Velvia 50 in 220 rolls than I will shoot this year.

You would want to cover the red window with some black tape - no paper backing with numbers on 220.

so why cant I respool it? If there is no backing paper then it should take up the same space as 120 with backing paper right? I wont be able to use it on red window only though. Maybe it would work on the YashicaMat?

It's my understanding (and I'm sure if I'm incorrect someone will chime in) that the lack of the backing paper can affect the film not being flat, and your focus will be off. That's why a back that accepts both 120 & 220 has some adjustment in the pressure plate, to keep the film flat.

Ok that's what I was wondering. Thanks.

A camera that takes 620 film does not have the space for a 220 roll to fit in. Also the red window will fog and destroy the complete roll. Do not try this at home!!

I suppose all 620 cameras have advance counter designed for the same length as of 120 film. You would need to adjust it to count 2x more frames.

Yashica Mat 124 is designed to shoot either 120 and 220 film, some of Rolleiflex TLRs can be modified.

But a Kodak Brownie Hawkeye does not, so your assumption is invalid.
