Re: Vintage film cameras
More of a workhorse than a sports car. As long as I can get the dreamy photos I have heard it can produce, I'm happy.

Re: Vintage film cameras
Never even heard of it! You've got a thing for 110 though and it looks pretty nifty.
Some great colours and tones outside today, shot nothing but am out and about with work tomorrow so will pack the K2. Also trying to work out why I'm crap with medium format. I've shot four films and they get more crap each time. For sure you get only 12 shots in 6x6 but I can manage more than two good ones off a roll of Poundland. Hmm. Maybe 6x4.5 would be better, or maybe MF isn't for me! Maybe I'm trying to be too clever and it turns out, I'm not clever enough. |

Re: Vintage film cameras
Yeah, this one is the MK2. There was a really strange looking MK1 which was basically flat with a massive lens sticking out of the front. What do you mean by "no good at"?

Re: Vintage film cameras
I quite like the aesthetics of the Mk1.
MF, I dunno. It's the first time I've tried square format, and I've found out how many times I use the rectangular format as part of the composition. B&W can be tricky as we see in colour - the pictures from the Crawick Multiverse lost a bit I think as everything was green or grey, but a similar shade. That's a separate thing though. Sometimes I get really duff exposure, maybe the film is more tricky than I'd thought, I've not used the same ones in 35mm. I'll have to post some and some 35mm ones for comparison. Am likely to give it another go soon as I lost half the B&W film so will want to repeat some of those pictures, if I can. Maybe I should try it in 6x4.5. You got any thoughts on 35mm vs 120? |

Re: Vintage film cameras
Well most of my mf are 6x9, I don't think any of mine are 6x6 and only the Bessa is 6x4.5. Only square formats I have are the 127s. I like working with mf as the negs are huge. Having said that, I started with mf before adding 35mm when I got back into film so I can happily work with both. I think I enjoy mf more though. I think the key with black and white is having lots of contrast. As you say, similar tones will just merge into one and give a poor photo. I won the mk 2 for the starting bid. Hoping its an easy fix. Got the batteries through for the BX and got it loaded. Got so many on the go that I have lost track! Will send you a roll of expired 110 Tiger if you got for the mk1.
Hey Johnny, did you know that Pentacon lenses were made by a daughter company of Zeiss Jena which was split off from Carl Zeiss at the end of WW2. May have a poor name but the glass should be excellent. 262703338960 Sent from my KFTT using Tapatalk
