I'll check it out again Jon, I am in the pakon group on fb. At the time it died I posted on the group and the consensus was that it was a hardware failure unfortunately.

Georg, really like the Olympus half frame shots.
Bedankt, Paul! I've got an Olympus Pen EES2 (fixed lens, selenium-cell around the small lens, automatic exposure) too and that one is almost more fun than the Pen FT. Somehow I enjoy very simple cameras right now.

A quadriptychon shot in my neighborhood with a simple Olympus Pen EES2. TMax100 under-exposed, have to re-shoot this.
The sgraffiti are typical examples of "socialist style artwork" found on many places in my hometown.
The pictured sgraffiti were made in 1953.

A shot from summer 2012, printed last night. Rolleicord III, built between 1950 and 1953.
Xenar 75/3.5 taking lens, film was cheap Fomapan 100, developed in Rodinal 1+50
Thank you, Tom. The wall/ruin belongs to a former Cistercian Abbey, here is a link to the remaining part: Doberan Minster . I have no clue about the former function of the pictured ruin.
Georg, now I have bought myself a nice little half-frame camera too. The Agfa Optima Parat should arrive in a couple of days. It comes with original box and pouch, and the selenium light meter supposedly still functions as intended. Looking forward to use it.Agfa Optima Parat
