I'm planning to play about with an old Lubitel 2 camera that takes 120 film but I was thinking of running 35mm film through it. I'll probably end up with negatives 60x24mm as opposed to the usual 36x24mm. My question is, can I expect a regular photo lab to handle this format? I'm sure processing the film shouldn't be a…

Has anyone done the two films side by side thing yet?
