  1. It was a lot worse when I first took it out of the box. I made a little thread at my m4/3 forum on what I did to it here: https://www.mu-43.com/threads/new-camera-for-christmas-sorry-lots-of-pictures.110319/ It looked more like this
  2. Here’s the camera her husband sent me a couple months ago - his Jiffy Series II. I cleaned it up best as I could and am hoping to get film for both of them soon and test them out.
  3. My mother is clearing out her house a little in preparation to sell and came across her camera from when she was a kid. “Hey, would you like my old camera?” What? Of course I would! So now it is going in a box this weekend and she will mail it off to me once she receives her 2nd vaccine. I don’t see a bulb anywhere in the pictures she sent me so I’d like to start looking now. Any idea how to determine which one it takes? I think it is a “flash mate” and I can’t seem to locate the correct bulb at B&H. But it should take the same 620 film as the last camera her husband sent me a few months back too (his old Jiffy Kodak Series II). Thanks for any leads you have for me.
  4. Nice looking collection you two have. I have mine that was originally my father's.
  5. I received a new (to me) camera this year. Some TLC was in order and I chronicled it somewhat on another forum that I frequent for mirrorless digital cameras. I thought it might be of some interest here so am linking it below. Thanks. https://www.mu-43.com/threads/new-camera-for-christmas-sorry-lots-of-pictures.110319/#post-1443868
  6. I've suddenly realized I effectively hijacked this post - sorry about that. I'll post another one with adventures with my new camera. Thanks all.
  7. Once you have gone through the process of moving the film from the 120 spool to the 620 spool, you still need another 620 spool for the film to wind back into as you take the photos, right? And then once the film is spent and rolled onto the second spool in the camera, do typically send that spool in for developing or do you then spool it back (for a 4th time!) onto the original 120 spool so that you are sending that back in and keeping your 620 spools? Otherwise it seems you’d be running out of 620 spools quickly. Sorry if I’m misunderstanding this all, but I just acquired my first 620 over the holidays too - a Kodak Jiffy Six-20 Series II from my mother’s boyfriend. He has owned it since it was new!
