@longexposure It's a 3.5F planar i believe. I bought it sight unseen from a family friend in WA. Unfortunately there is a bit of lens separation going on.. i shot a couple of test rolls and developed them but havent scanned or printed them yet to see how badly it affects the image.
im considering sending it to focal point in the USA to repair the lens, i dont know of anyone in australia that could do that kind of job
I am fascinated with your marvelous focus in your shots in the album - and the way you're not taking on developing - takes me back 60 years to my uncle's basement and probably where my interest in photography began.
@milaniet thanks.. it's a struggle with a new baby, had no time to do any serious images lately. but its been fun playing around with this film stuff in the odd times shes asleep.
im pretty interested to see how this rolleiflex goes with all the hype around medium format.. and actually if i use colour it can be quicker since i dont need to photoshop
@robotvulture mate if you are on Facebook join a group called Australian film photographers. There is a lot of knowledgeable people on there, I'm sure someone can help.
