Originally posted by ismaelg I found a video on youtube from FPP (Film photography project) on how to do the respooling, for me its the easiest one to do compared to other ones Ive seen.
For the Six16, I recently got a 616-to-120 adapter from FPP's website yesterday.
On the plus side, I got a bunch of 120 spools (from a trade) and was able to get some with the backing paper to practice with & to figure out the turns so frames dont overlap. I am looking to get some 620 spools through trade from anybody that has spares/unused ones laying around first to use in the Six-20, but if anything I could just modify some of the 120 spools I got to fit in it.

I liked those too, but for some reason 6x9 folding cameras always peaked my interest, mainly cuz with their aspect ratio being the same as 35mm, I saw them like a "Super 35" and been like "Oooh, shiney! Must get one!"😁 but the prices with some of the more "modern" ones (eg Fuji 6x9) was a pretty penny and a decent amount of folding cameras, well, weren't 😁
And after I got the Six-20, I found the Six-16 camera on ebay a few days after, and I was like "Weeeell, I got the 620, might as well got its bigger brother too while Im at it"
