The detail is that like for the Rolleicord you lose 1/2 frame, I obtain 11 1/2 
frames opening the Rolleiflex back after the frame 6 with 120 film, and then 
I'll obtain 23 1/2 frames with the Rolleiflex using 220 film like for the 
Rolleicord.

BTW, it's always better to have the 12/24 lever, otherwise you need a dark room 
or a film changing bag or something similar to open the camera back in the 
middle of the roll, but this is the more practical method to use 220 film in a 
Rollei TLR that is not prepared to use this film.-
