patrick_stack Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 <p>Gabor -</p> <p>Just a great way to start my day, seeing these excellent shots from the "Old Standard." All of them are fine exposures, inside the burger joint is a great composition. I love to see an old classic find it's way into the hands of someone that will care for it, and use it proficiently.</p> <p>Among my meager Rollei collection is a Rolleicord II, with Jena lens, circa late thirties. A gift from the original owner, capability far exceeding my expectations at the first time I used it. Uncoated lens of course, but after a thorough service by a Rollei specialist it produces razor sharp and contrasty images. I had not thought it would perform that well, but life can afford pleasant surprises.</p> <p>Thanks so much for the shots and text, great job all around.</p> <p>Patrick</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gatorgums Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 <p>BTW, i noticed you emphasized that it works, "at all speeds ".<br> That's the thing about the german cameras, i think.<br> They seem to just keep on going.<br> I have a very humble Zeiss Contina 35mm , with the flip up meter.<br> It too still works at all speeds.<br> I love the old German cams of the 40s, 50s, 60s.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
