robweatherburn Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 Another image from my old Ikoflex II (1936) - but this a very small section from the neg. I couldn't be more pleased with this camera. The Ilford XP2 film was processed in a D&P lab - very badly messed up - dirty processing and bad streaks on the sides of the neg. I began the crop to get rid of the mess, and like this 'longer' look to the subject. Rob<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark_wilson4 Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 Wish I had such a camera. What lens? Can you post any other photos? That Malta shot was interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robweatherburn Posted April 15, 2006 Author Share Posted April 15, 2006 Mark - I've not long had this camera, and not used it a lot. First rolls were for a portait shoot - and I was worried sick about getting it right with the odd shutter speeds. Unnecessary - it worked fine. With this photo - the others from only one roll shot in Malta, I was forced to tackle cropping to get away from the results of appalling processing. Scratches, blogs of much and dirt - and so any images from it were selections from the negs. That first post was one - here - a couple more I salvaged from that roll - but have some well processed negs from Oz - so will post a few samples when I can scan them. I bought this camera very cheaply, and was very doubtful about it - but it's a fine camera. Recomment it if you can find one in good order - and I like the old 'lever' focus - although it was soon discontinued. Two more here - of this same subject in Malta...even the tone of the negs changes through the roll... Rob<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
