I used the 120 camera mainly because I wanted to shoot portraits that were 
more or less posed, and wanted the exceptional detail that you can get from 
a 2 1/4 negative.  Also, the 105 lens helped to throw most of the 
backgrounds out of focus at f8 or so, something that I can't do as readily 
in 35mm on a bright day (unless I resort to filters). 

Glad you liked them!

Jim --

Outstanding work!   

Why did you use the 2 1/4 ?
