Scans from Ricohflex, medium format

[Katastrofo]

This is from the Dia L model. I'm currently assembling another Kowa Six,
this time in black, and hopefully the Kowa Six MM model, that has mirror
lockup. Just won the 85/2.8 Kowa lens in black, a later model held to be
sharper with better bokeh than the earlier 80/2.8 model.







This is using Fomapan ISO 400 Black and White film.

hey Bill,

as usual I am a fan of your black and white photos!
REALLY lovely, always nice to see them.
I am also a fan of your girl model, she is very photogenic. She's born for the camera.
My fav is pic#2, but #1 is just as good, only, I notice some strange artifact in pic#1 - may be film grain, but it looks more like the typical artifacts caused by the denoise->sharpening workflow.
Pic#2 is better in this regards
I also like much the bright contrast of pic#3, it really sets the mood.

Thanks, Orio, I like the 2nd pic the best, too.

Nice photos from the old ricohflex, i just picked up an old ikoflex with the tessar lens but haven't had a chance to try it out yet, can't wait to see how much difference a bigger format is going to be.

Have fun with that tlr.

Joeee, when you get some pics developed, be sure to post them!

BTW, welcome!
