Glad you have one of the 35/3.5 Elmar lenses - they are now very, very pricey online. I tried to get one for what I figured is a reasonable price for a copy, but no luck. I was told they are in demand by collectors which drove prices up. I settled in the end for a nice Canon 35/2.8 LTM Serenar lens for less than half the asking price of this Elmar lens.

The summaron is arguably a better lens due to the elmar being a tessar and they don't do as well on the wide end of things. I actually got this fairly cheap forgetting that the elmar is not a summaron (which is what I wanted and had in the past) but it was a local deal, came with hood and filter adapter for under 2 bills. I find out now that the 35 elmars are getting collectible so I am pleased to have this lens.

Some more shots with the elmar 35/3.5 on a IIIc, captured on c200 and scanned in the pakon. From the first test roll on this body and lens.
wide open...this lens is sharp in the center...classic low contrast rendering which I like on film.
wide open, dog and wife relaxing in the late afternoon
flare...sun was just above the FOV
sharp in most of the frame, corners are not too bad

Couple from a month or so ago, minolta xd-11 and 35-70/3.5 loaded with TriX, developed in hc110, pako scan. Had a bit of a break at work between clients, decided to snap a few as the light was good.

Shot from the test roll off a Bessa I 6x9 folder, Pro160S. It’s not a versatile camera, but looks like it’ll be an enjoyable one. Look forward to running some B&W.

It was a folder that got me hooked back into film, a Zeiss 'Baby' Ikonta 520/18. I had recently downsized my digital kit dramatically when I found this little guy at an antique store. It was small enough that I could throw it in my bag, and with eye focus/auto everything it was a breath of fresh air to use something 100% manual. Then the disease I had recently conquered came back in full force, and I now have a whole bunch of film cameras and a few more en route.

Haha, I was concerned about your disease for a minute till I realized it’s one I never conquered myself... my first was an Ikon Nettar, fun little guy with good IQ stopped down. I have 4 now, another Ikon with some fungus that needs cleaned and a Franka Solida. Would t rule out more in my future.

Nice one, Huss! I'm very familiar with 6x6 but never shot a TLR.

Thanks Rico! They take some getting used to if you use the regular finder (as opposed to adding a prism) as things are reversed.
But they can be hand held at really low shutter speeds due to the leaf shutter - no mirror shock.

Yeah - try shooting something moving and panning with that. I learned on Rolleicord 3.5 TLR that was my father's. There's also the built in flip down sports finder that can help with that too. Definitely a learning curve to these cameras, from loading the film to framing and focusing.
Here are a couple I shot with that camera back in high school in 1974 when I was shooting for the high school yearbook. and also a shot my father took with the same camera somewhere around 1960. That's me in the striped shirt at Mrs. Crawford's nursery school at the Monterey County Fairgrounds.

The laterally reversed view I know from my Hassy era, the prism head being a serious extra load that I usually avoided. More intriguing to experience would be the lack of mirror/shutter shock of a TLR, matters of parallax, and no blackout. For that experience I only have 35mm RF: Leica, Contax T.

I love the low angle of #1 and framing of their heads against the ceiling beams.

Thanks Rico. These still hold up today, forty-six years later. I had not taken a single photo class at this point. All self taught and pretty raw but showing promise. Now if only my sister had not of thrown that camera away - literally - after my father died three years ago, I might have that to play with. That 3.5 Tessar was surprisingly good even though it was the "cheap" option.

Excellent shots Peter.
Another old folder, this time a 6x6 Franka Solida with some expired Reala. Fast lens for a folder, and seems pretty good.

Good ol' Solida. That was my primary shooter in the 1970s.

Taken yesterday with my 4x5" large format rail camera and Arista 100 film. Schneider-Kreuznach 210/5.6 Copal lens. Purposely done double exposure with red filter, developed with Xtol (1:1).
