  1. <p>Hi everyone!<br>

    I have red all R3 related posts here and I think I'm in a greater mess now :-)<br>

    My question is: I have one 120mm roll of Rollei R3, shot at iso 100. I have limited accesses to developers here in Macedonia. I can use Rodinal, Perceptol, Microphen or ID 11, I also have some old pack of Orwo a49. Which one (or none?) to use ? and how (developing and agitation time)?<br>

    thank you<br>

    ps.pls be specific :_)</p>

  2. <p>thank you again, i must say i feel kinda obligation to inform you that I enden up with a mamya C 33 profesional, in a mint A++ condition, with the 80mm 2.8 lenses, seiko shuter, for under 100 euro! HA! actually the camera found me, and i must admit, that im more than happy with it! (so much about my jarn about sekor lenses-above:-P) it is reliable, sharp, and yet soft enough to meet my taste. It is heavy, but not as hassy or 645... so thank you again, i found what I was looking for. <img src="http://members.webs.com/MembersB/editAppPage.jsp?app=photos&pageID=116152297&token=2b71e49c6ce3b07d122049e1af8#photos/photo?photoid=41350696" alt="" /> Here's a sample, first test roll, Kodak Portra VC, 400 ASA, scanned at the lab (some ooold scnaner, i dont even know the brand)... i guess i'll have to start building my darkroom heh...</p><div>00TikZ-146633584.jpg.bd9a16e19053b02f2a97d6c98fe8a1e7.jpg</div>
  3. <p>Dear Bueh, reading your posts here, and in another threads, as well as other forums I get the feeling that you are right about the complexity and that the camera is overpriced and overengineered... I just may give a try of the Sekkor afer all :-)<br>

    Thank you Peter :-)</p>

  4. <p>Thank you dear Bueh and Jack<br>

    I forgot to mention above that Im (kind of) trying to avoid the Sekkor lenses, and I'm more a Zeiss kind of taste. I know that some of the Sekkor lenses are killer sharp but the "sharpness| or taste that Zeiss provides IMHO is more natural, at least for my (-1.5 dipoter) eyes :-). I've read the thread some time ago and I red it again ......I may end up with an RB/RZ... and I really don't need a <em>sexy tool</em> , trying not to mix the tools if you know what I mean :-).... so, now I'm sitting on a double fence, heh :-)</p>

  5. <p>Hi all<br>

    I think I need your opinion about this one. I'm in position to buy used Rolleiflex SL66 with Planar 2.8/80mm, it <em>looks </em> just fine for me, in fact it looks really cool :-). But till now I haven't found some hard core comparation btw this camera and some other of its class. So, basically-what do you think about this camera? And the leneses? what about other lenses for this mount? are they better or worse than the zeiss lenses for hassies? Repairs?I think for a similar budget I can get an Hasselblad 500 C in a good condition, but this one looks kinda better built, or lets just say, i like its design more...I have used a couple of Yasica Mat's, Pentakon six and now i think its time to get something more serious, more reliable and with interchangeable lenses :-). I really do not need auto anything, in fact I really enjoy the "slow analog process" these previous cameras got me into. I tend to use it mainly for color/B&W negative portraiture photography, using natural available light. So, any thoughts/experiences to share ? Thank you !</p>
