[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 328737, member: 12496"] I guess 1950 must be like the Civil War sometimes. :) Yes, the top lens is for the viewfinder. It is called twin lens reflex, and they were popular (Rolleflex, Yashica, Mamiya, etc). The design makes interchangeable lens difficult. :) 620 and 120 film are the same film, but the spools are different. If you have a couple of 620 spools (for takeup too), then you can (in the dark room) respool 120 film onto a 620 spool. [/QUOTE]
