Using the film is just like the procedure on the Kodak Hawkeye Brown. Either you respool from a 120 film or you trim the edges.

A really nice camera to handle...its a steal at such a low price!

 

[shuttergal]

Thanks and thanks. A nice showpiece as well considering the pristine condition of a 60 years old camera. In our years of collecting, this is one Kodak folding camera that stands out in terms of its nice condition.

Nikkormat EL is not included Just to show its size

Yes, using this camera with 120 film shares the same concept like the Kodak Hawkeye Brownie. Difference is you have a much better lens, a few more speeds, full aperture control and a nice looking body

Indeed, 620 must put in a little extra effort

 

[shuttergal]

Yes, the original 620 spool is included.
