Thank you so much!! I just got a minolta Hi-Max rangefinder and when I was a kid, we just used the disposable cameras and shipped them out for the processing! Thank you sososososo much again!!!! :D
I got into analog shooting a modified roll of 120 on a 620 Kodak from the 1930s. The optical quality is far from the best and the negs are so large that you can only take 8 pics with it, but using a 90 year old camera that still works today made it worth it!
I have a 35 mm Kodak Pony camera that was made in the 1950s that I actually do like using. It doesn't even have a rangefinder you just kind of guess how far away is subject is or measure it if you can and set the appropriate distance on the lens barrel. The way it was made it doesn't even need the foam light seals that often deteriorate on cameras that have it. 100 ISO films work really great in it especially Kodak ektar with his fine grain.
I have the same exact camera, was thinking about using it but I have never used a film camera like it and I just wanted to have this knowledge before I did use it
Good video! Now you need one for 120. Being a lab I get tons of 120 that is obviously loaded wrong. Also rewinding your film backwards causes all sorts of problems and extra work for the lab because the tool they use to extract / retrive the film will not work. Please learn how to use the camera before using it.
this video was very helpful! thank you! however, I have a weird question for you that I don't know if you'll know the answer to. I got this pre-owned Canon AV-1 film camera, very similar in model to your Pentax in the video. The crank on mine is missing and I'm getting my fingers sliced by the piece remaining. know of any places or anywhere I can get a replacement? I'd like to save my fingers, especially as I've been using this camera more and more lately.
Again I press the release button and I'm not getting no resistance. Before I opened it and as thought I was sone as been winding for ten minutes. Nope not done. I'm again getting no resistance so I don't want to risk opening it. Have pressed the release button. I'm struggling so much with analogue I can't even get it loaded or unloaded without help. Feel so stupid. Only ever got 1 film developed in 2 years. I kiss can't get how to use it correctly no matter how many tutorial I watch or get shown. As soon as I'm alone I can't figure out anything 😔 Now just stuck with an unloaded camera and I wanted to load more film but can't risk opening it again.
You can also usually hear the film disengaging from the take up spool.

You should make one of these for 120 roll film
i had a really tough time figuring it out my first few rolls
Great video!
I second this. Can’t find a manual for my ‘38 Zeiss Ikon. And can red windows be trusted with today’s film?
I accidentally ripped my film out of the canister, do you have a video on how to put it back in?
thank you! short explanation but precise.

The early Olympus OM cameras will often have there rewind release on the front of the camera next to the lens.
Thank you so much for this! I just used an old film camera my sister had for the first time and was afraid of tying the film🫶
thanks for this, very helpful!
How will I know if my rolls finished?
I've been winding for 10 minutes can't feel no resistance.. how do I know it's safe.
It worked before.. think I. Going to quict photography and stick with art and paintbrushes. Can't hack the tech..
If you feel no resistance then it should be good to open
I just got my first camera and I’m so overwhelmed. How do I know it’s working?
How do i get the rewind button to pop out again?
It pops out again when you push the advance on your camera again!

What did you shoot this video on? Looks great!

Okay but how do I get that from the film on my computer?

And it's a different camera from the last so I know it's me.
Just amazing.
Thanks for the info! :)
