Right now, my 500CM, although i love it for special situations, feels like a huge chunky brick compared to this sweet little thing.

Taken with a little Voigtlander Brilliant from 1933 ... scale focus and uses a magnifier instead of a screen.

Very, very interesting photo. It is an eerie and delightfully ambiguous image.

Thanks, Peter. I've really got to send this camera for a CLA. I'm getting weird bands in the sky, ruining bunches of frames.

Thanks, Peter. Will contact them and send it away. In the market for a Rollei 2.8 if and when one shows up.

Sure! The value of the square negative is that you can crop it horizontal or vertical or leave it square as you feel gives you the best picture. In the old days we cropped every photo as needed; unless, of course, you were having the photos printed at the drug store. Even then some of us would take scissors to the prints.
It was the university professors teaching some kind of fake purist artistic crap with 35mm that started the no cropping BS back in the 1970's. One of the ads I remember from the old days was a Speed Graphic ad labeled, "One good negative, seven great photos", that showed the negative and seven crops from it that gave entirely different pictures of firefighters at a fire. Cropping is one of our most powerful tools, don't throw it away.

This is my favorite TLR photo to date... as it is in fact my first TLR photo ever! Taken recently with my 1958 Yashica 635, (you may recall the story of my rare 635 with the unusual black radial control dials) this is the first image on my first roll through the camera. I have posted this image on another thread, but felt it should go here also, due to it being my first (and therefore favorite!) TLR photo.
I developed it myself; my first film developing since I was in high school some 35 years ago. It was shot handheld in extremely low light, (long past sunset) steps from my oceanfront home on Fogo Island, off the northeast coast of Newfoundland. I used Ilford Delta 100 Professional film, developed in Ilfosol 3.
I can hardly wait until my misbehaving spine will allow me to get back outside again with my lovely Yashica 635!
