Fotoklaus Posted March 28, 2016 Share #201 Posted March 28, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Look for the newer Elmar-M. A very good lens. But yes, you could use an old collapsible Elmar as well as the newer Elmar-M. Ah... you got it already.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

@McLeica Posted March 28, 2016 Share #204 Posted March 28, 2016 Get a Rolleiflex. Blimey Peter....now that's trolling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter H Posted March 28, 2016 Share #205 Posted March 28, 2016 Blimey Peter....now that's trolling. Feed me, feed me! But I do mean it, seriously. If I was ever to go back to film it would be with a Rollei, without a moment's hesitation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EoinC Posted March 28, 2016 Share #206 Posted March 28, 2016 Is ilford Pan 400 okay? The Leica shop where I am buying my M6 is out of stock of the Kodak, only have ilford Pan 400 Have a browse through here, Neil, to get some idea of the look of Pan 400: https://www.flickr.com/groups/ilfordpan400/pool/ I find Flickr searches helpful in determining what I'm looking for in a scene for the film that I'm carrying.

A miller Posted March 29, 2016 Share #209 Posted March 29, 2016 This thread is hilarious. How many LUF members does it take to screw in a light bulb?? It is as if you tube doesn't exist... You can get a PHD in photography from you tube.... And I agree (with the troll ) about medium format... $10 that Neil gets the itch for one in a few months time assuming the film GAS catches on... 10 more bucks that he goes for a Hasselblad... I just can't help but to foreshadow a little b/c this thread is like watching a movie for the 3rd or 4th time in slow motion... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A miller Posted March 29, 2016 Share #211 Posted March 29, 2016 Youtube on this rig is banned. aha, that squares the circle for me! [of course I am kidding (and also am not subscribing)] If you get sufficiently up the learning curve with film, you'll quickly realize that the S2 is really no substitute for MF film.

Guest NEIL-D-WILLIAMS Posted March 29, 2016 Share #212 Posted March 29, 2016 Get a Rolleiflex. I actually went and had a look at them on eBay but quickly realised they are for old farts so logged out and will never look again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith (M) Posted March 29, 2016 Share #216 Posted March 29, 2016 Neil, assuming (always a dangerous thing to do) that the film bug truly bites, there will come thoughts about negative size - after all, size matters Those itty-bitty little negatives you are peering at, a mere 35 x 24mm - pah! 6x6cm? Better but then there's 6x9cm, now we're talking. Bypass the Hasselblads and Rolleis, what you really need to accompany your German Leica is a Texas Leica Welcome, dear visitor!

If he gets up any learning curve, he'll realise that the S2 is not 'medium format'. Somehow, I think the curve is a little too curved...... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

earleygallery Posted March 29, 2016 Share #219 Posted March 29, 2016 Hmm when I once posted a Rolleiflex image it was immediately pulled and I had a 'naughty boy' email from a mod! Are they more lax over on the German side for some reason? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
