yup for 120s i tear out a small piece from the film box and fold it once or twice. hmmm, so i guess it shouldn't be tight at all? meaning my 35mm film should be winding up nicely right? cross-fingers. guess i'll leave out the cardboard on my next 120. i've read somewhere that the newer holgas have better construction and they don't need the cardboard anymore, but i just put it in case. kiasu singaporean lol.

if you're not kiasu you're not singaporean. anyways might want to try with a thinner piece to make things safe.

your holga will starts to become a bit more fragile as it aged. now i got some lightleaks already.

oh.. to add on.. i dropped my holga once.. :cry:

Got the no. of clicks question as well. I did my 35mm mod on my 120N Holga. Without the mask. No adaptor. Looking at this; http://photondetector.com/tools_ref/135-advance/ I'm still a tad confused. It seems that with the mask, it gives more shots? Why is that so? What's the diff between with mask and without mask. Which mask shld b used? Finally, so.. how many clicks should i turn for no mask, no adaptor?

i do 36 clicks with the pano adaptor..its fine... ruby did 26 clicks for you ? i dun think enough leh...
