What it is
{"overview":"The Kodak Medalist I is a medium-format rangefinder camera that takes 620 roll film, introduced in the mid-1940s. With only one data point, the wider price and value range is not yet established, and condition of the bellows-free helical mount, shutter, and rangefinder optics will heavily influence what any individual example is worth.","buying_guide":"Inspect the coupled rangefinder for clear, aligned patches, check the leaf shutter fires accurately at all speeds, and confirm the heavy double-helical focusing mount turns smoothly without grit.

Questions
Does the Medalist I use standard 120 film?
No — it is designed for 620 roll film, which has the same emulsion width as 120 but uses a slimmer spool, so buyers typically respool 120 onto 620 reels.
