I went our with my 1969 Rolleiflex 3.5 F Planar loaded with some 09/2002 Dated Fuji Provia 100F and metered with my British 1960's Weston Master III + Invercone - I rated film at 100 ASA and results were good. I used the Rollei Pentaprism to steady myself. Shutter speed was 1/125th and aperture f5.6 or f9 in sunny light.

Rolleiflex more than holding its own.
