I have finished developing and scanning all images from my late summer holiday in Greece now. The first 4 images where taken with a Rolleiflex 2.8F. The remainder are taken with the Mamiya 6 and the 75/3.5 lens. Both cameras are such a pleasure to use and the lenses have an amazing signature...

Pentax 67 with 105/2.4 and 75/4.5 lenses and Ektar 100 self developed with the Fuji Hunt kit and scanned with a Coolscan 9000 I can't believe how amazing these two lenses are - I dare to say that they are at least as good if not better than the lenses on my Hasselblad. BMW by Nicholas T, on...

Rolleiflex T - Rollei 80S with yellow filter developed with XTOL stock for 6:30min Really like the extended red sensitivity, non existent grain and tonality of this film and how easy it is to get dark skies with a yellow filter. White Towers by Nicholas T, on Flickr Old Street Roundabout...

And this is medium format 6X9 quality now Fuji GW690II - Ektar 100 - Scanned with a Coolscan 9000 This camera is well worth a try particularly given the price they go for at the moment. Lavender by Nicholas T, on Flickr Textiles by Nicholas T, on Flickr

I have never been a big fan of 35mm film as getting great tonality is far easier with medium format but really happy with the scans (coolscan 9000) from the Bessa R4A with Ektar 100 film and the Voigtlander Color Skopar 21/4 and Zeiss ZM 28/2.8 Barbican Cinemas by Nicholas T, on Flickr Into...

Thank you all for your lovely comments glad you like them :-)

Acros 100 / Xtol Stock scanned with a Coolscan 9000 Originals at https://www.flickr.com/photos/nico1974/ Mamiya C220 with 80/2.8 lens

Yes it has an amazing lens for a Tessar design - sharper than the Xenar 3.5/75 of my Rolleicord Vb at equivalent apertures with nicer bokeh. Just to clarify that mine is the Mamiya IV B model the one before the Mamiya Six Automat. It is build like a tank and I could not be happier with it.

Thank you for your comments. My Mamiya Six folder has the Olympus D Zuiko FC 3.5/75 - the last version before they started using the Mamiya labeled one.

I am going through a bit of an old folders phase at the moment. All images self developed Ektar 100 -(Fuji Hunt Kit) and scanned with a Coolscan 9000 Originals at https://www.flickr.com/photos/nico1974/ Voigtlander Perkeo I with Color Skopar 80/3.5 lens Mamiya Six Folder IV...

I have just started using the Fuji Hunt Kit with the separate Bleach and Fixer instead of the combined Blix of the Tetenal Kit and have also noticed an improvement particularly in the consistency of blue skies which always tended to have a slightly muddy / yellow appearance and needed a bit of...

Thank you for the lovely comments on my previous post. 35mm film this time. Minolta CLE with Zeiss Biogon C 35/2.8 - Ektar 100 - Scanned with a Coolscan 9000 / Vuescan The Minolta rangefinder is my favorite 35mm camera at the moment - small, light and with a fantastic viewfinder/rangefinder...

Mamiya C330S with the 105/3.5D lens which is outstanding, has such beautiful boker wide open and is very sharp. I am surprised how quickly I got used to that focal length Ektar 100 self developed with the Tetenal Kit. Scanned in with a Coolscan 9000 Originals at...
