Taken with a Kodak SIX-20 Model C camera in week 383 of my 52 film cameras in 52 weeks project:

As the name suggests this camera uses 620 film, which is no longer made, previously I have re-spooled 120 film onto 620 spools in order to use 620 cameras, but I found a very old (expired 1972) roll of Kodacolor-X film. This was an early colour negative film using the obsolete C22 process. After a bit of research I decided to process it as black and white, giving it 12 minutes in 1:50 Rodinal. Unsurprisingly the results are pretty dire, but at least there are images on the film, albeit drowned out by the effects of deterioration over 45 years.
