That is the nice thing about bulk, it is a WHOLE lot cheaper than buying it in commercially available lengths and you have the flexibility of how much you want to shoot. With 120, it is not as big an issue because all of my backs except 1 are A16's so I don't have to worry about having too many frames to shoot on one roll. I prefer the A16 to the A12 back because it gives me more frames per roll and since I have masked off my Hasselblad focusing screen with electrical tape to emulate the 6x4.5 format, I have more control over cropping.</p></blockquote><p></p>
