Doc Henry Posted December 27, 2015 Author Share #8981 Posted December 27, 2015 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) My Paris shots again, love the City. This was along from the Louvre, and is now a severely cropped panorama, the sky was full of gunk, it looked like the neg had been close to someone with a cold. I'll re-wash it and see if I can extract the full shot. Adding to the woes, it looks as if it was not secure in the neg carrier, so is soft on the sides. Lovely place though, Henry will know it well.

Guest Benqui Posted December 27, 2015 Share #8984 Posted December 27, 2015 I think your new camera has potential. Very nice. I just sent my Ricoh GR1V to the Square Warranty company for a look at what appears to be imperfect autofocus and metering. Due to its age, I doubt they will be able to fix it, so I am hoping for a refund of my purchase price. I though about the Minolta TC1 (as well as the Contax). I wanted a 28mm, so that eliminated the Contax. I can't quite remember what drew me away from the Minolta, but it certainly won out in the construction category. I think if the GR1V worked perfectly, it would really be quite a nifty tool. The ability to change aperture on a dial on the camera and zone focus at 1, 2 and 3 meters is quite cool. I just wish the flash could work at high shutter speeds. Any way, those compact film camera are really cool and I think everyone should have one (that works properly) The Contax was also on my radar, but in Germany they are still very expensive, up to 900 Euro in some cases. I also liked the Ricoh, but the Minolta is a more compact. It is really a gem. Easy to use, you can push your film manually with on click, pre focus, fast autofocus...I had this camera in Iran with me and to be honest on my monitor I see no difference to my Leica lenses. best regards Marc 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Henry Posted December 27, 2015 Author Share #8985 Posted December 27, 2015 (edited) Today I tried the Adox Fx-39 for the first time. Not a good photo to evaluate its quality, but I will see... To be honest it was no Leica today, I used the Minolta TC-1 with a fixed 28 mm lens. It is a beautiful very small analog compact camera with a fast autofocus and I am impressed about the quality. best regards Marc Marc nice "chinese shadows" a french expression Best Henry Edited December 27, 2015 by Doc Henry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A miller Posted December 27, 2015 Share #8994 Posted December 27, 2015 (edited) I do, I do... For us Barnack owners, let me be more precise: those compact film cameras with auto-focus, flash, an internal light meter, and the ability to manually choose the aperture and focus distance are really cool and I think everyone should have one (that works properly) Edited December 27, 2015 by A miller 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
A miller Posted December 27, 2015 Share #8995 Posted December 27, 2015 Adam, also considered a CL(E)? That camera has always intrigued me. Can I use my LTM 28mm summaron with this camera (with an M adapter)?? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwolffensperger Posted December 27, 2015 Share #8996 Posted December 27, 2015 I've used several ltm lenses (amongst others a 35/2.8 summaron with ltm-m adaptor), which work perfectly on my CL. No problems with the rangefinder. However some lenses with a large protruding rear element can be a problem, because of the lightmeter. I've got no experience with a 28 mm summaron, but a 25mm Biogon Zeiss works fine. But I guess you'll be needing an external viewfinder, because the viewfinder is approximately 35mm in the CL. The CLE should have 28mm framelines. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbealnz Posted December 27, 2015 Share #8997 Posted December 27, 2015 That camera has always intrigued me. Can I use my LTM 28mm summaron with this camera (with an M adapter)?? Could be wrong, but I'd assume so, it's just a M mount Leica/Minolta. Gary Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Hiles Posted December 27, 2015 Share #8999 Posted December 27, 2015 The monstrosity otherwise known as the Tour Montparnasse is in the far distance. It amazes me that the city fathers (and mothers) allowed this building to be put up. I think Paris was smart to put the modern stuff in La Défence in the distance. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
