Description
You can now use your 616 film camera once more with these wonderful little adapters from Camerhack!
They will allow you to shoot any of the 120 films available with your 616 camera by adjusting the 120 spool to the right height and dimensions for easy use: it comes with 2 sets of adapters so that you can also use a 120 spool as the take-up spool.
The one adapter with a different hole is the “Key Adapter”: it features a 1mm laser-cut stainless steel flange that exactly matches the hole that’s in the original 616 spool. This adapter will engage with the camera’s film advance crank.
With these adapters you will get approx 6 panoramic photos (~11x6cm) from a single roll of 120 film.
