Lovely example of what the Nikkor 80/2.8 lens on the Plaubel can do even in lighting conditions that would normally be causing flare. I'm not sure how much use the standard hood for the 80/2.8 is, but mine never leaves the lens. The only exposure problems I've ever with the Plaubel are the standard:
- Leaving the lens-cap on (doh!)
- Loading or unloading the film badly, and getting light-leaks
Reminds me that I need to get mine out and shoot it some more, though my expired film supplies are starting to get VERY expired, and may have to invest in some fresh rolls. Speaking of which, I miss 220 film (was great to get 20 exposures in one roll). ...Show more →
That reminds me to start using the hood on my Makina!

Looks pretty now already! A suv is the right choice bc i've seen people bust up their compact cars on the dirt roads there
The seventh pic required a very steep climb up a loose dirt surface with deep moguls. A regular car or generic grocery getter SUV would not have made it as I needed low range, ground clearance and the rear locker activated. It was a side trail up into the mountains off of Elkhorn road.
It’s really only Soda Lake Road that you could take normal cars. I’ve seen people trash their cars on Elkhorn road before it hits the valley.
