How to load it into the 120 magazines ???
 

If your MF camera uses film magazine, then high chances are that it should have a 220 film backs. as for more common MF cameras, those i know can use 220 films are :

Yashica Mat 124/G
most of Mamiya TLRs
Mamiya RB/RZ 67 - with 220 backs
Hasselblad - with 220 backs
Fuji MF rangefinders

-these are the cameras i known to be able to take up the 220 films but NOT limited to only these.

Interestingly i found this article that says a Holga is able to use 220 films too with specials steps to load it. >here<

are there places that even develop 220 film?
 

Desmond,
Not too sure, tired search the net what i found says something like "special order taking 220 films...", I guess it means back in those days you can have optional special order for your T1 to be able to take up 220 films. That also means that there is a slight possible yours could be able to do so. Check if there's any indication of 220 or any lever to switch from 120 to 220.

Any labs that process 120 are able to process 220 too.
 

Bought one box from seller. Nice guy :) Hope you get to sell them all Terrence. :thumbsup:
 

Pentax 6x7 also takes 220 films.

Yes and No. Many can process but they cut in half prior to the development. I am only aware of Fotohub that processes 220 without cutting it.

As for specific film magazines this is a neverending discussion whether these for 120 can be used. Some ppl claim they use 120 for 220 for years with good results some claim that the thickness of the covering paper already makes the difference - personally I would rather expect to have some issues the other way around. Also the frame counter may be a problem if integrated with the film back.
 

any takers? i still have quite a bit

Sorry to interrupt ... but does Fotohub do C-41 120/220 developing?
 

Yes. I got the above mentioned Fujicolor Pro 160S 220 developed there two months ago.

May i ask does Fotohub charge double the processing fee since its 220 instead of 120?
Thanks in advance
 

Thanks for the reply Agatek.

No, Fotohub's website lists nothing!

Anyway, I have to go down to FH soon and will check with them.
 

fotohub charges double for 220 processing.
 

Oooh... thanks to agatek and realgar for answering the queries.
