new 2.8E with original ribbon still uncut.

Nice Pic!!!!

I have a new Baby Rolleiflex and just cut the red ribbon last month. What a feeling.........

I lost that red ribbon of my 2.8c ....too bad.
where did you get the new 2.8e? My 2.8c is brought from a flead market that the seller though the red-ribbon means fault.

got it from a friend's father, who was compulsive collector. I have a 2.8C too.

Here's mine. From my grandpa. It has the tessar 3.5. I will try it out tomorrow!

my new 2.8F!

I had no idea about the red ribbons. How thoroughly cool! (And I'm amazed there are new and pristine Rolleiflexes out there still.)

here comes the whole family!



The two Yashica Mat 124 Gs and the little Yashica 44 LM are making fun of the poor little Ross Ensign Ful-Vue Super...


I know something is strange about the 124 on the left. It seems to have the body of a Yashica Mat 124 (not "G") but still has the meter and name plate of the "G" version. god knows why. I love both of them. I think the earler chrome lever and copal were a little more bootiful though. Maybe.


And this is the 44 all alone and fully armed:

Here's the wedding tool of my youth! Great camera!

This thread is becoming overcrowded with Rolleis... here's something a completely different:

yey for the flexaret, spyderman! :D one more point for the non-rollei fraction hehe

Impatiently waiting for the weekend to shoot the first roll.

Heres my Yashicamat with my 120 film stash

Mamiya C3 with 80/2.8

Pretty, but I may hope you do not leave those rolls in the sun!

My Ricoh Diacord and Meopta Flexaret Va. They are works in progress. I bought the Flexaret over three years ago but the focusing screen was dim and dirty. I never could figure out how to get the top off so it sat. A friend gave me the Diacord. I cleaned off the focusing screen but I have a hard time focusing on just ground glass. So it sat, too. Then I discovered Rick Oleson's focusing screens with a split image spot. The screens transform these cameras. Now I'm measuring for new leather. More pictures and a longer story at my Flickr set.

I think i already showed off my 2,8F planar & Tele rollei, but they have now been joined by a Rolleicord Vb & a Yashicamat.
Let the tri-x roll!

Taken with the only digi-cam in the house, my new Yashica D:
