Not used my lovely 1960 ROLLEIFLEX 2.8 F Planar for a long time so gave it an outing into Hartswood, Brentwood, loaded with 02/2013 dated Fuji Superia 400 kindly sent to me by a Flickr Friend. I rated it 200 ASA. The Rollei Selenium Cell Meter agreed with my Weston Master V so I used it with the Incident Light Diffuser. I had to 'Hand-Hold' as I am not really allowed to carry heavy Tripods after my Operation -- so I used wide apertures ,f5.6, f4 and one at f2.8.
This one was stopped down more to f6.3
