Decided I wanted something a little ore modern, like with an advance lever that not only advances the film but even cocks the shutter!
Kodak Retina 1a (Type 015)
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53385618872_4f9c31e135_b.jpgGood stuff. I'm noticing that all descriptions of the Retina IIc describe it with the Schneider Retina Xenon 50mm f/2.8. The camera I just picked up has the 50mm f/2.0 lens but I cannot find any site that lists the faster lens as an option on the IIc. The faster f/2.0 lens was used on the Retina II (type 014). I'm glad to have the faster lens but curious whether the lens was switched out for the faster f/2.0 version.The IIIc was designed to be the top of the line model and has the faster 2.0 Schneider Retina-Xenon lens. The meterless IIc was considered a more budget model has the slightly slower 2.8 Schneider. It was only the European cameras that had the Rodenstock Heligon. These were expensive cameras when they were new with Leica and Contax being the competition.
FWIW, I think the IIc is the best looking of the bottom winders.So how do I have a IIc with and f/2.0 lens?
At some point it was transplanted from a IIIc. Not hard to do since the lens mount was designed for interchangeable lenses. Fortunately for you, both the focus and rangefinder have been adjusted for the lens to work properly. It's a really nice combination and the 2.0 Schneider is a great lens.

I doubt my store took that into account in their sales price . . . lucky me!

@dourbalistar my white elephant wish came true! Proud owner of a murky blue Reto Ultra Wide n Slim.
Loaded it with decades expired Fuji 800, figure the real ISO now is about 100-200 seeing how my other rolls w this film went. So should be 'ok'.

Bob, you’re getting super results out of that Kodak. If you didn’t mention the camera used, no-one would be able to guess it!

Thanks Huss! So far I'm pretty pleased with this camera. When folded, it fits in my jacket pocket. It's a fun and cool camera to play with.

I agree that these photos are really impressive!
My first 35mm camera as a kid was this one's cheaper cousin, the Kodak Retinette; mine was the later rigid (non-folding) model.

Thanks! I saw this camera in my local store and thought it looked so cool. Went home and read about it. Bought it the next day.

Fuji Pro400H always amazes me. For some reason I always get better results than I do with Portra 400. All with my mamiya 645 super and Cinestill kit developer.

Many on this roll seem to have the highlights clipped a bit. I'm sure it's pilot error.

I have gifted several of them just so other photographers can learn what they’re capable of. I’ll probably hang on to the 1a. It’s tiny and light plus the scale focus works pretty well.

My Leica M2-R came back from CLA earlier this month as did my dual-range Summicron. First shot below is with the Ultron 35/2; the other two are with the Summicron. All on XP2 400.
