I found a folder in the heritage of my father with a few rolls self-developed B/W negatives.
He had a Konica Autoreflex T + Hexanon 50/1.7 and Hexanon 52/1.8 - I can't say which one he really used in these pics.
He also had a Tokina 200/3.5 at that time, I guess only the last one was made with it.
Pan F 50 and Ilford FP4
Microdol and Neofin were used, according to some scribbled notes in the folder
Digitalized with NEX-C3 + Rodagon 105/5.6 on bellows + invertion and PP in Lightroom 4

This must be the comet in 1975 and Tokina 200/3.5

Let me say, I am impressed!
Your father had a great photographic eye, a true photographer!
All the shots reveal a great aesthetic sensibility and a talent for composition and for capturing the mood of the moment.
You must be proud of him!
Take good care of his work.

P.S. #4 and #5 are so good, they look like frames from a Pasolini movie.

Outstanding. Yes, a great time machine effect. I felt the same way when I went through all the b&w negatives my dad shot when he was stationed in Korea during the conflict. I've been meaning to put Dad's negs in archival sleeves, but haven't done it yet. They're still sitting in the original boxes that came from the developer(s). How did your dad store his negs?

Wow!Shocked
I think I have to dig up my own B&W pictures from sixties and seventies Smile
I still have them somewhere, made with Ricoh S3 (RF) and Minolta SR1.
And hope they don't disappoint me after this pictures. Rolling Eyes
I even still have 6x9 negatives of my father from earlier date, made with his war time (or prewar?) Wirgin folder.
