How To Use 35mm Film In A 120 Camera : Diana F+ Camera Hack

- In this video I illustrate a camera hack that will enable you to use 35mm film in a 120 medium format camera. Specifically, I will be looking at how to do this with the Diana F+ camera. You could also use this same method on dozens of other medium format cameras.
I have been shooting with the Diana F+ for a number of years now. It is definitely a very fun camera to shoot with. It is famous for dreamy images, which come from its plastic lens. The camera is also known for light leaks. In the video, I also have some suggestions on how to avoid such light leakage.
In general, I have enjoyed Lomography cameras for quite some time. Of course, this style of lo-fi photography is not going to appeal to everyone. But if you are like me and you enjoy shooting photos with plastic toy cameras, you may want to give what I suggest in this video a try.
Do you still shoot photos with film? Do you have a Diana F+? Do you own any other lomography cameras? Have you ever tried a hack like the one I suggest in this video? I have been an amateur photographer for almost 40 years. Please feel free to check out my other photography videos!
In the future, I plan to share several videos relating to do-it-yourself film photography. In the near future, I hope to do a video showing how to develop black and white film at home. It's really quite easy!

A truly legendary camera. Sweet hack.
Thanks!
Thank you for the tip!
You're welcome!
Hey very nice diy 😍
But how do you get the film back / out of the camera? Are you doing this in the darkroom?
Yes, darkroom, or you could do it in a changing bag, which I use frequently.
Hi! Thanks for this video! i recently buy a diana camera (just diana, without other names) and this video help me a lot! but i have one question, when i take the film to reveal, how take it off? i mean, considering the issue with the light.
btw, sorry for my english, i write from chile!
thanks :)
You would need to do it in a darkroom, or use a changing bag.
You really need to invest in some fingernail clippers . With regards to the video, pretty cool hack. 🙂👍
Point taken! :)
Hi! Is it not possible to rewind the film like you would with 120 film? Also, will the sprockets show on the images with this hack? Thanks!
No, you have to remind the film by hand in a light free bag. Yes, the image will spread into the sprocket holes.
