My friend Bruce and I both got the same camera the same week! So we decided to shoot them straight away and pool our thoughts. This is what Bruce had to say – “I recently came into the ownership of one of the smallest rangefinder cameras ever made. It has the distinction of having an…

For a while now I’ve been struggling with this camera, a friend gave it to me though so I can’t give up. Its specs lead me to believe using it would result in good photos. It has a f/1.7 lens, so it should do alright in low light! On the first roll I shot I…

Before Covid-19 I thought it might be a good idea to acquire another Rolleicord, specifically for taking into questionable situations such as music festivals and Burning Man. Places many environmental things are out of my control and I’m not daring enough to take the love of my photographic life, my Rolleicord Vb. Even here in…

I decided to shoot a roll of Rollei RPX 100 at 800 ISO because after work we were going to see a friends art show at Highcroft Manor and it was all I had on me (silly I know I could have bought one of the many that surround me daily but I was feeling…
