I have had this camera lent to my by the in-laws.
They bought it back in 1972 and took it round the world with them.
It had sat on a shelf for years when I rescued it. It had been kept in a leather pouch and had the slightest touch of fungus forming on the edges of the lens. I took it to my good mate Max Dellaway he gave it a quick service and said it was good to go.
So I loaded in a roll of Fuji Superior that I had laying around and Lisa and I took it for a test shoot around Joondalup.
The battery I believe was dead so these would all be shot wide open a f1.8
My whole first look is here: http://protas.metalforfishes.com/?p=509

Here are just a few of the test shots:












*I'm not sure I posted this in the right section, it maybe should have gone in the colour film gallery, if so please just move it to the appropriate category mods. Very Happy
