Hey guys,

I've got a Kiev vega 2 submini that I'm planning on using soon. The only problem is I have only 1 film cartridge and also don't know how much film to load into the cartridges. Would anyone happen to know a good source of empty Vega 2 cartridges (I believe they are the 30 frame ones not 20)? and also how long must the film be in them? I can only find lengths for the vega 1, 20 shot cassettes.

Thanks in advance :)

Rob

If you provide a mailig address I will send you a film roll and you can measure it yourself!

hey

Thanks :)

Do you mean a film in the cartridge? or just the film strip?

Im in the UK by the way, so postage might be a bit much :S

It needs 45cm of film for 20 10x14mm frames.

Cheers,

I will post Pics of the little boxes of roll film that the Soviets sold in a week or so.

thanks for all the info guys :)

I thought the Vega 2 took 30 exp rolls, atleast the frame counter on mine runs up to 30 :S

Am I missing something?
