My lovely 1956-59 Rolleiflex E2 XENOTAR taking lens was scratched by the Press Photographer original owner then he sold it to a member of a local Rotary Club then his Widow gave it to me in a Dusty Box with lots of other stuff - I had it repaired after several years as there was a missing PIN on the base-plate bottom latch , winder crank stiff, shutter speeds slow etc -- it is amazingly SHARP after all these years and even with the taking lens scratches ! Outdated FUJI SUPERIA 100 home-processed in C41.
