Fujicolor Pro 160s in my Rollei 35 T
I just got back my first roll of color film (Fujicolor Pro 160s) I shot in my Rollei 35 T. All shots were metered using the built-in light meter.
I had the film developed and scanned by Fromex in Marina del Rey, California. Here are the some of the shots from the roll.
1942 Ford Pick-up Truck
1963 Ford Falcon Futura
Culver City Ice Arena
Fromex in Marina del Rey
2012 McLaren MP4-12C Sports Car
Culver City Anti-Homeless Bus Bench (at F/3.5)
Los Angeles Fire Department Training and Storage Site
Land Rover in West Losanagel Trader Joe's parking lot
Dear John's, Culver City
Marvel, Manhattan Beach
Prop Cars (fake cop cars) being unloaded for a shoot

Wow some nice shots there. Very sharp and love the colors. Is an excellent film but isn't it discontinued now?

Unfortunately it is discontinued for 35mm. Fuji has a newer version Pro 160 NS for 120 only. I bought a couple of those to try in my MF cameras.
Luckily I have 20 35mm rolls of Pro 160S in the freezer. That should last me for about 2 years since I don't shoot that much color in 35mm.

The bars across the bench seat prevent homeless people from laying down and sleeping on it.

I think I'm beginning to hate you, Chris. That stuff is way too good for one human!
I'm impressed with the grain. It's nice and tight, given the speed and the frame size.

Can't keep 'em from sleeping under it though. Great examples from a classic camera, Chris. I shot a roll of the 160 last fall, and was quite pleased with it. Looks like I'll have to upgrade my TLR collection to take advantage of it's fine colors.

Very nice -- the colors on the very first two photos are particularly good. And nice to see what the Rollei 35 can do in good hands.

The frog wall lamp is amazing. I want one.
