Hello Thilo,
Loose change is pretty handy to center a 35mm roll of film in any camera. I have used it in 120 and 126 format camera without any problems.
For the 120 format camera, the film was rewinded under my winter jacket. A film bag would be better especially during summer 8^)
For the 126 format, the film is extracted the same way before loading it in the camera.
Regards, Claude

Hi Claude,

how did you rewind the film? A film bag?

Hello Mark.
To answer your questions. I asked the lab to process the film without cutting it. I have been going to the same lab for several years and they have stop commenting on my trials. At the beginning they often told me that my camera's winding mechanism was broken 8o)
I got lucky with my first shots. Wing's and Lost trolley were the first and third shot of my first 35mm roll in a Holga. I did two rolls so far and they are the only good shoots I got.
A turn and a half of the knob will be just enough at the beginning of the film. Around the middle, a turn and a quarter are enough. I would recommend that you put a piece of cardboard under the receiving spool to make sure that each turn of the knob will move the spool around.
If you have other questions, feel free to contact me at six4cinq@gmail.com.

Claude, you are really good at shooting with the 35mm cartridge film! I tried it once, and got pretty good results. Practice, right? Also helps if you have a lab that's smart enough to snip in between each shot. That, or keep the whole roll uncut. I wanted to ask you; how many clicks on a Holga to advance one frame for 35mm?

i like the tridimensional look and feeling, the trolley seems to fall out of the film.
