It's only the second roll I've put through it but it's a great camera. Contrast is rather high but I went for process and scan not print, first time I've done that, and you could PP it anyway. It's Poundland film. One thing I find is I'm not used to the moving frame lines (parallax correction) so I tend to ignore them and sometimes the framing is wonky. I checked it out and the frame lines are accurate, I'm more used to SLR or the Zeiss RFs - with the latter the VF is in the centre anyway, and all you have for close-up pics are a pair of marks so you crop a bit off the top of the VF, which works very well (typical!). Definitely my favourite camera at the moment.
