First 120 films back from Peak for my 50s Folder,... so happy

[Mr Bump]

Well got my 2x120 films back from Peak today from my recent purchase of the 50's Zeiss Ikonta M. Have to say i'm so pleased I took a lot of time on some of these pictures taking light reading also with a proper 60's vintage meter a Weston V transfering distance from the rangefinder to the lens and also thinking hard about the F stop.

I decided to run 2xrolls over a weekend, 1 in Huddersfield on Saturday and one walking up the canal with the wife on Sunday.

Isn't it a great feeling when you get a good result from old film gear ?

Couple of frames seem to be showing signs of a light leak tho' ??

Onward....

I may have said this before but....it's hip to be square.....

Glad you're enjoying using the coolest of all the formats.

I think the frame you looking at might be the flower one and it was some odd sidewards glare i think, also the pics have been scanned on a flatbed so maybe are not there best. the negs are massive i wish i had a medium format film scanner

I was overwhelmed when I opened the pack from Peak Imaging.
I actually felt emotional.

The quality from those guys I have to say is amazing.

Great stuff! I love the square format.

Did Peak do the scanning too?

Really glad you're loving the results Paul, they look great! People so often assume digital must be better because it's newer but in thinking that so many people miss out on using an absolutely gorgeous format.

Really looking forward to seeing more, maybe photos in Leeds followed by booze is in order!
