Honestly one of the best demonstrations I’ve seen. You make the instructions very clear, visuals are easy to follow, background isn’t distracting, and, best of all, it’s a complete rundown of its operation! For some reason, it’s hard to find videos that do all of that. I really needed this for my 2-A Autographic, so thank you. I’ll be sure to check back to your channel in the future. :)

Brilliant, thanks. i have just bought a no.2 still awaiting its arrival. Light leaks on the corners of the bellows can be, and invariably are a problem. In semi-darkness remove the back, extend the camera to its full extent. using a small powerful led torch placed carefully inside the bellows move it around gently, carefully inspect from all angles the outside of the bellows for pinprick light leaks which will spoil any film inserted. So they have to be made good, I have used a flexible black spray paint used for fabrics, shake the can well, spray some paint into a pot or the lid, and using a small artists paint brush paint over the area of the light leaks, it dries very quickly so you have to be pretty quick too, once dry, check again with the torch to see if you were successful or you had missed any and repeat as necessary. Don't over do it with the paint as it will remain tacky, just enough to do the job.After completion leave the camera open for the paint to fully cure. Checking for light leaks now and again might be a good idea. This is a suggestion ONLY and it is up to you if you go ahead and take the risk, there aren't many options other than having new bellows made and that could cost far more than the camera is worth. This is purely an experimental idea, I have used the process on four folders, two were very bad and reguired a lot of time and paint, and have remained tacky so beware, not too much paint.The other two a Finax and a Selfix are working just fine. I also used Black nail varnish very sparingly applied on another camera also successful, but I am unsure whether this will remain flexible over time. Good luck take care and don't blame the author if it isn't successful :-)

Does this mean the camera is just broken? Is there a different way I could get it open, or check if it's broken? Also, will the 2A work with 120 film? My local shop doesn't have 116 available.

The No.2 uses 120 film which has the frame numbers written on its back. So you can see them in the red window on the back of the camera. (see 6:16) You advance one number each time you take a photo: 1,2,3... No need to skip numbers or go in between them.

Hey there, thank you for this video, it was extremely helpful. I have this camera in the No. 2C model from 1915 or 1916 that belonged to my great grandfather. It is in perfect condition and everything appears to work. I turned the spool until I saw 2 dots through that plastic piece on the back, I believe this represents picture 2? The film looks like the original film. The two questions I have are, would those two dots represent the film being in place for the second picture? And how would I remove the film properly and be able to see the pictures taken? I don't know anything about film so any help would be appreciated. Thank you
@FilmCameras
@FilmCameras 5 жыл бұрын
Hi. First of all do not open the back of the camera because the light will destroy the images on the film. Two dots usually are notifying you to carefully turn the spool further to the next frame. The frames usually are marked by numbers and not dots. Now continue turning the spool until you see the film paper moving past the red window. That means that the film is totally rolled back to its place. Normally you will be able then to open the camera and remove the spool like the end of the video here. But to make it sure, better do this in total darkness and put the removed film in a lightight case. You should take it to a photography shop that develops film and give it to them for processing and see if any photos are in there. The 2C model uses 130 film which is now obsolete, so you need to tell this to the shop because not everyone can develop it. In any case keep in mind that any exposure of the film to light will destroy any images there are, if there are any.

@@Curtjmac Can't tell for sure. Maybe the first photos were saved. Also maybe the last person who used it never actually took photos with this film, who knows?

Give it a try developing it and you can share your results here!

I have the C model and need to find replacement bellows. Do you know what type or measurement I should be looking for? Thanks!!
@FilmCameras
@FilmCameras 2 жыл бұрын
The bellows have 4 sides all around that form a rectangular. You should measure the height and width of the part of the bellows that is attached to the camera body (the largest side) and the height and width of the part that is attached to the lens (the smallest side). Then you will need to count how many pleats there are, and finally, how far the bellows extend. It is quite tricky to make them on your own, but you can find videos on KZbin. But by having those measurements, there are online stores (like on ebay) that sell custom made bellows.

You don't need to load it and unload it in a dark room. This is why the 120 film has the thick paper layer on top of it. Just to be sure don't load-unload on direct sunlight. Finally, when you unload make sure that the film is fully rolled back.

Hi! To identify the camera type, look for the plate with the name. It should say if it is a No2 or 2A (or if it is a different model). If it is indeed a No.2 like the one in the video, you should use 120 film. I would suggest Ilford HP5 Plus 120 black and white film which is cheap and has a very good quality. Furthermore, it is very easy to find. Just do some search on line or visit a photography shop in your area.

Hi! If you have a broken red window you will definitely have light leaks ruining your photos. You can try using a piece of thick, dark red plastic (you can try cutting a piece from plastic document folders for example). Just make sure it is taped all around so that no light enters directly inside. Then, the only thing you can do is test with a film and see if it has light leaks. But even if you have a red window you must never point that side directly to light (black and white films of that time were not sensitive to red color, but modern ones are). But generally you will be ok with a dark red plastic on. Another way is to completely cover the hole with dark tape and try to remember how many turns you give to the winding key to move to the next frame. But since this is not very precise, you might see that some frames overlap at their edges.

What you have to do is to cover the window with thick black paper or tape, so that no light passes. Because you won't be able to see the numbers, you should calculate 4 full 360 degrees turns of the knob so as to proceed to the next frame. Don't forget when you first put the film inside, to turn the knob another 4 full times to advance the film to the first frame.

The empty spool is the same as the spool that holds the 120 film. If you go to a photography shop that develops film they will have spare ones, and sometimes give them for free, as they usually throw them away. You can always find one online or you can spoil a 120 film to get the spool. (If you roll the 120 film out from its spool in total darkness and put it in a light tight place, then you can later use it by rolling it back on a spool).

Is there a way to use 35mm film?

There are some 35mm to 120 film adapters that you can find (usually from online shops). Never actually used one, but you might get interesting results.

What do you mean with “the last 8th photo”?
@FilmCameras
@FilmCameras 4 жыл бұрын
These cameras can take up to 8 photos on a 120 film. They are medium format which means that although you take fewer photos (than the 35mm film), the photos are larger and of greater quality.

Does anyone know if I can use 120 film for the No.2A?
@FilmCameras
@FilmCameras 4 жыл бұрын
Yes you can, but since 2A used 116 film, which had a larger spool, you will need a 116 to 120 spool adapter to fit 120 in your 2A. Try searching this online and you will find a few solutions to this.
