The is the first set of urban landscapes in Toronto, all done by Rolleiflex 2.8F.
The first one is one of my fav, @f2.8 & 1/8. I wanted more DoF, but it was
rainning and got darker every minutes and file is ISO 100, so I settled to 1/8 sec.
One of two shots I did, the other was not so good. This is large size of 1,500 x 1,500.
(Two cops were giving a ticket to the guy in front of illegally parking VW car. This is
busy main street during rash hour.) click the photo to enlarge please
The rest are in 1,200 x 1,200. This was a couple of days later, overexposed severely and fix it a bit.
In the morning, where we walk with our dog. 3D is nice, cast of blue due to morning light
Close to our apartment, maybe I should crop the left side a bit. Should be more careful to focus to what (main subject it is).

Rolleiflex 2.8F has Planar 80/2.8.
One night ago there was one at eBay, L-mount Zeiss Planar 2.8/80
fetched US $1,225. This one is limited version, and can separate
the lens optics and its base. And you can find a special helicoid with
F-mount, with which you can use the same lens on SLR (of Nikon).
The lens its self is the same one as current model of Rolleiflex 2,8F GX,
but L-mount one has HFT coating.
Anyway this Planar 80/2.8 is very nice lens indeed, you feel warm
and happy when you see the result by this lens. _________________ Our Home Page has 18,200 photos in 575 directories today.

How did you manage to get such a clear shot (the first one) shooting at 1/8th of a second? Tripod? I like that shot! _________________ http://www.flickr.com/photos/franciscogomes |

TLRs have no mirror, normally shutter botton is very light.
And hanging from the neck and the camera on your breast
stabilizes well, of course you have to stop breathing a while.
Just hit the button of any TLR your friend has, you know
you can go 1/15 sec easily. That first shot was much darker,
I raised brightness by PS. It was not good condition to shoot,
getting dark and raining a bit, so I have to cover the finder
by my head. Actually I was looking down to shoot, but worry
about the camera getting wet. _________________ Our Home Page has 18,200 photos in 575 directories today.
