Comments about Kodak Portra 160 Color Film / 620 Format:
I have a collection of old cameras that use old film sizes. It is very encouraging to have access to many of those sizes at B and H. Portra is a great color film with accurate color representation across subjects. I am very pleased with the results!

Comments about Kodak Portra 160 Color Film / 620 Format:
I recently purchased an old Kodak camera at a flea market. I assumed it would take 120 film, but to my surprise, when I opened it up, I saw a large label that stated "KODAK 620 FILM ONLY. DO NOT USE 120." While I do know that it's possible to use 120 film in it, it was still missing the spool that I needed. I didn't have to search the web long before I found B&H and realised that they sell 620 film. I was very pleased by the quality, pricing, and even delivery time of my product.

Comments about Kodak Portra 160 Color Film / 620 Format:
I was so happy to see B&H carried the 160 film! I might try to roll 120 film (same thing as 160 film but comes on a 120 size spool) to the 620 film spool myself (it's cheaper) in the future but for now I'll be buying the ready to load 160 film.

Comments about Kodak Portra 160 Color Film / 620 Format:
I'm glad I found 620 film! I have been surging far and wide. I know you can respool 120 onto 620 spools but honestly if the film is out there use it. I have a brownie hawkeye and have been dying to use it. I was told B and H carries almost everything and they do!
The film was delivered successfully and not damaged. I loved the shipping options. Deadlines are important on photography.
Overall it is a good product ( its Kodak) and B and H allowed me to shoot old school the right way.
Thanks!
