Just incase if you were unsure which fisheye2 lomo camera was
http://images!.urbanoutfitters!.com/is/ima!.!.!.

is it possible to use 120 film for 35mm!? urban says the camera is for 35mm!.!. I'm a beginner, and wanted to just get a 'toy' camera for fun! but i'm not exactly sure the differences

so my questions are:

can i use 120film for fisheye2lomo cam instead of the regular 35mm!?
what are the differences from 120film from 35mm!?
i like the surrealness of diana; if i can use the 120film on the fisheyelomo2, will it turn out like that!?


thanks in advance! :)Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
No, if the camera is made for 35mm film, 120 will not fit!. 120 film is nearly twice as wide as 35mm film and comes on a spool, with paper backing; 35mm film has sprocket holes and comes in a metal cassette!.

There is nothing inherently more surreal about 120!. The Diana produces funkier results with 120 than 35mm because the larger format film picks up more of the aberrations and light falloff in the outer portions of the image!. I'm sure the Lomo fisheye will be plenty surreal!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

35mm cameras take 35mm film, 120 cams take 120 film, !.!.

35 goes into 120, 120 doesnt go into 35mm

you can use 120 if you cut it down in the total dark, then load it into a 35mm cartridge after making all the glide holes - it can be done but it defeats the pursposeWww@QuestionHome@Com
