Williams Picture Pan-620 B&W Film No Expiry Listed
- 39 in stock
WHAT CONDITION THE CONDITION IS IN: AS IS.
We managed to find a large lot of unexposed and unprocessed black and white 620-sized film. This film is for vintage cameras that take 620 film. The film size is the same as 120, but the spools are different sizes. 120 film and 620 film are not interchangeable without modification.
A perfectly unassuming 125 ASA black-and-white panchromatic film, likely drifting out of the 1960s or '70s and, we suspect, tailored for Canadian sensibilities. Though it's probably just Kodak stock in a modest disguise, as so much of this era seems to be.
We have no information on how this film was stored. It's safe to assume that it is usable, but not at all like a modern film, both from an emulsion point of view and an image point of view. We will shoot a roll in one of our 620 cameras and comment on it over the next little while, but for the time being if you purchase any, please note that it is rather old.
Process it in whatever black-and-white chemistry you trust most, and consult the ample web wisdom on wrestling decent images out of decades-old stock while keeping the fog to a merciful minimum, because at this age, dignity requires a little effort from everyone involved.
