Hi, Mike,
Lovely shot, lovely machine.
The tiny self-portrait is very Hitchcockian.
Best regards,
Doug
Try a C330 from Mamiya! Plenty around and brilliant optics! The brightest viewfinder ever.I've got the Minolta 'Rollei wannabe' and a primitive American one too, but I've never had a Rollei. Tempted, but hasn't happened. I bought some bricks of Kodak Panatomic X 120 and have them iced for the future. Fuji Acros is awfully hard to beat though. Alas, too many cameras, too little time. Congrats, that is a beauty. To many, these were the equivalent of a Leica. They became an extension of your hand and you could shoot quickly. Confession time, did Vivian Maier inspire this camera?

Mike, it is gold. And getting as expensive too!
Love the nostalgia you are bringing here. The first ' frame ' of yours reminds me how old I have grown!
Thanks for sharing.
