Thanks for the answer. I can find the b/w 127 film in stock, even here in Portland. I have not gotten to the shop to pick some up yet and since I sold all my darkroom equipment before I acquired the baby rollei I have been resisting b/w film. I haven't found a good source to develop or print it and I have tried numerous times. It is just not the same as doing it yourself. I was hoping not to have to get to the stage of cutting down 120 but I guess we will all probably have to follow your example on that. I think this Fall I will have to be turning my spare walk-in closet into a film loading/developing room. Never was a fan of loading my own film from large rolls as it was always a mixed bag when you got into the darkroom. How difficult is cutting down 120? Are you using an old 2.25 camera modified to cut film?
Cheers to all my fellow "baby" owners
