This helped me a lot much when I couldn’t figure out how to load the film! Thank you so much!!
So glad this helped, thank you for the comment Annai :)
Thank you for reminding how to use my own camera!
Got you Hugh! Thanks for the comment
Since i dont own one i always wondered on how this worked! Thanks for sharing this!
Appreciate your support. :)
Thank you. That was a great help for me! 🖖🍀
Cheers
Thank you so much. This was really helpful.
Cheers, glad we could help
You should do a how to unload film now.
Thanks for the comment Cam, good idea. I will share this with Matt and see if we can get something put together soon. :)
@@Filtergrade 3 years later….still no video lol
120, not 120mm. No correlation to 35mm whatsoever.
Well 135 was also developed by Kodak
@@lightrust4680 The point is that there is no mm in 120. There's no correlation between the 120 and the measurement of the film. It's a 60mm film, not 120mm.
Who cares, we all know what he’s talking about
Sounds like you woke up from a deep ass nap and recorded the audio for this video 😂
Lmaoooo you probably aren't wrong. He's a sleepy fella
Memaya?
After the loading do you need to take one or two shots blind to make sure the film is winded up correctly to the first frame?
No, you will wind until it it stops then you are all set. That's why you like up the start line on the cartridge so the camera will stop winding at exactly the right point to properly expose the roll
Hi do i roll it until it says 1? Because i put the foll in and shot twice but still says s
No, you wind the film on the reel until you meet your camera's line indicator with the film strip indicator. Once you line the two up, then re-attach the camera back and wind until you see number #1. If you are seeing the letter 'S' then that means you need to forward the film (crank it forward, until it says 1). Hope this helps
Is it ok to open the back to unload and reload film outside?
do i have to buy a prism finder? or does it usually come with it
Typically you have to buy a prism finder separately, but it is not a necessity to use the camera.
@@Filtergrade thx u also can this camera have a polaroid back?
@@LinBenzo Yes, you can use a Polaroid back. A lot of people who have tried it shared info in this thread on Flickr: www.flickr.com/groups/mamiya645/discuss/72157627287581033/
Nice, what camera did you use to film this video?
Thanks for the support Evens Leandre! We filmed this with a Nikon D750 and Sigma 35mm 1.4 art lens
It's just 120 not 120mm.
Hii sir I am completely unknown about medium format films .. sir hw many shots we can take with that one roll and what about the lighting do we need much more light than a 35mm film
Hi Goutham, thanks for reaching out. You typically can take 12-19 shots with this film depending on the type and the lighting can vary.
Loaded a roll backwards somehow. Big bruh moment
Sad boys! It happens to the best of them though haha
Damn I just fucked it all up
LOL, we've lost our fair share of film rolls too don't worry :)
Hi! I just bought a 645, is it normal that multi exposure lever is stuck on multi? I haven't loaded any roll yet thanks 🙏
i just loaded in some film and mine is stuck too 😭
Idk if this helps or you guys have fixed it but I had a similar problem but I just had to use a good amount of force and it went into the correct spot. It almost felt like I was going to break it but it ended up working. I’m not sure if this is the issue with yours
@@brycericci yes hahaha I fixed it eventually and I was scared af to break it aswell
It doesn't have an interchangeable back?
Yeah, this is one of the earlier Mamiya M645 models and it doesn't have the interchangeable back unfortunately. The Mamiya M645 Super, Pro, and Pro TL all have interchangeable backs.
How do you set the film size like 6x4.5 etc?
Different cameras shoot different dimensions on 120 film. This camera only shoots 645. Some cameras have different masks like a holga but most shoot one size.
i use a afga isola 1, when i opened the pakage of the film roll the film roll sprung out and it was all rolled out ( the film was exposed to light for a time ) is this a problem and is it worth to keep shooting with the camera? or will i get a blank film back when i develope it?
i used a 120 mm film btw, from the brand foma.
How long was it exposed for? We've had that happen a few times with just some light leaks, but if it was for more than like 10-20 seconds it will most likely all be blank unfortunately.
ou should load the film backward like i ( and thousands of others ) did.. then scratch your head when you develop the film only to find clear plastic.. lol.. easily done tho.
What is the actually name of the track, the dude linked on Soundcloud has tons of tracks. I clicked through almost one hundred of them, can you let us know what this actually track is called please?
Olusegun Arigbede Hi this is actually my song! They got the credit wrong. I’m glad you liked it. Here’s the link :) soundcloud.com/tim-mensa/its-not-easy
Hi Tim, thanks for your comment. I'm sorry we got the credit wrong. Updated with your name and the correct link. Nice song :)
120 film is not 120mm in any way and referring to it as such is incorrect
its not really important tho..
@@livelongandprosper70 actually, it is.
120 film is not 120mm. 120mm = 4.72 inches.
Your seals are screaming to get replaced!!!
It’s 120 not 120mm.
mamaya
120 "mm"? Really?
mam-EYE-yah
Mam - ee - ah
