While we love TTV as much as the next guy, please save this group for posting shots made with the Brownie, rather than digitally through its viewfinder. TTV shots will be deleted. Also, really, we know what the camera looks like...this is a group for shots taken with the BHF..
Your Brownie Hawkeye Flash need not HAVE a flash to be considered a BHF.
Are you confused about a cleaning or a respooling issue? Check these sources below before you post a question.
*The BHF takes 620 film (this is the same as 120 film; it's just on a slightly different sized reel).
*Yes you can re-spool 120 film onto a 620 reel -- it's easy.
*100 speed film is usually the preferred modern film speed.
Is your lens flipped, or not?: the lens is designed to have the concave side facing outwards.
