found that out the hard way when a friend gave me some 120 film. and the only local place that processed it went belly up. next closest is 30 miles away.
I’m lucky, both B&H and Adorama have in house labs so I can get film back in a couple of days. There are several other places in Manhattan that process 120 but they send it out to, guess where, B&H or Adorama. So I’ll save time and go to the source.
I’m looking forward to getting my ‘Cord. It’s an old one (1936!) so no meter, slow shutter and I am sure it will need a CLA. The thing is, I walked around with my Ikoflex last weekend and my 20D. People would stop, talk to me and happily let me shoot their pics because of the TLR. It became a conversation starter! I think having it will make doing Street Photography easier in the long run, plus several of the people who stopped me were attractive female types. 8) I’ve just got to get used to using the viewfinder all over again, High School was a LONG time ago.
