As I promised, today I show you a roll from my Rolleicord, taken sometime in May. I’ve been shooting the Rollei quite a bit, but since it’s all in colour there is nothing to show you yet. So far I have only ever developed one roll of C41 film in 120 and before I get to my Rollei rolls from Argentina I first want to make sure that the CPE-2 develops 120 evenly at 38°C. I will have to bite the bullet and shoot a test roll, which of course meant that I had to buy another 5 pack of Portra 400 in 120. The irony is that I will have to continue shooting Portra 400 in the Rollei for a while longer although I don’t even know whether I’ll like it that much. I guess I will just have some faith and roll with it. The next batch of 120 film that I buy after this one will be HP5+, that’s for sure though.

All pictures taken with: Rolleicord V, Schneider-Kreuznach Xenar 75mm f/3.5.
RPX400 developed in Caffenol-CH.

Now that’s an unusual crop for me: 4×5. I better don’t get too used to this format though, it’s damned expensive and not really suited for street.

I’ve tried to take this picture many times, but it never worked. Square was the solution.

The sign pointing to one of my favourite bars in this town. Only problem is that it’s not around the corner and doesn’t have any interesting photo opportunities on the way.
