Taken from the English Wikipedia on Feb 1, 2006[]
I've copied the page largely from wikipedia, editing along the way to remove useless links, does anyone see this as a bad way of doing things if the wikipedia source is good?

- There is no problem with this, on the condition that we mention it somewhere, with the revision date of the Wikipedia article. --Rebollo fr 05:06, 18 June 2006 (EDT)
Deleted a sentence[]
"Due to better control of frame space, modern 645 format cameras get 16 exposures per roll of 120." -> That has always been the case, even at the time of the red windows, except maybe on some cameras equipped with some primitive exposure counter systems. I deleted the sentence. --Rebollo fr 09:23, 2 May 2006 (EDT)
That's not what I remember or misremember, which is that earlier cameras needed two windows, using both to read each number (intended for 6x9) from 1 to 8, and usually getting only 15 frames on the roll; while later cameras had a single red window for the numbers later added for 6x4.5, and usually getting 16. (For some reason I don't understand, some recent Fuji models only get 15.) Hoary 10:25, 19 June 2006 (EDT)
