I have purchased a Graflex22 as a gift and need to know what types of film can be used. I'm completely ignorant when it comes to photography and I could really use some help! Thank you!!!

The 22 either the camera, or the roll film adaptor takes size 120. Quite a few choices are available in both color and black and white. You will not find it at Wally World. Go to a good photo shop. Processing for color will have to be sent out. But if the person has a darkroom he could do the black and white himself. I myself prefer Kodak, but there are plenty of other brands available. Russ

I would check your local yellow pages to find stores that sell the film and process it. I shoot some Kodak color print film with an Ikoflex TLR and the lab I go to gives me 6 inch prints in 2 days for what I think is a reasonable price.

These older cameras are much more fun to use than watching them sit on a shelf.
