film camera back and get a comparable digital model? Did you consider the
digital medium before buying film? My advice for whatever camera you buy
and keep is to read the manual - maybe two or three times through. If
computers interest you, and you plan to shoot rolls and rolls of film, you
may want to consider switching to digital now. Good luck.
Why does it never occur to the great digital advocacy that not
everyone wants to be their own photo lab?
I mean, I shoot digital images as well as film, and I am in fact my
own processing (though not printing) lab. But I know plenty of people
who'd as rather not be bothered with the whole passel of hardware,
software, umpty-tumpty menus of camera features, and want to drop a
roll off at the drugstore for someone else to deal with.
I suppose, however, for the consumer market it's a moot point.

I have no idea about placement of frame numbers, as you couldn't interchange them, 120 film would not fit in a 620 camera because of the smaller chamber for the rolls; perhaps in an emergency 620 could have gone into a 120 camera, but I never heard of anyone doing it, and exposure to light would have been likely when unloading because the film wouldn't have been wound tightly. ...
