Loving the new Portra 400 in the Rollei

Nice, I hope you kept your Mamiya 6. I have the same Rolleiflex, the 6 and the Rollei compliment eachother well

The image above is my favorite one of the set, becuase it's so much aboout photography: windows, reflections, seeing-through-the-glass.

I too am trying the new Portra 400 (& new 160). Your results look persuasive. I too got a slight pink cast, and I saw another possible problem: a slightly mottled look in intense skies. I don't know if I should attribute this to the film, the lab, or evil spirits; I'll try some more and see. My highest hope for P400 is that it will let me use my 0.7 Mutar, which is sharpest at f16. If not I'll have to take the suggestion above and try a Mamiya 6 50mm for WA.

Thanks for the comments
I have not got rid of the Mamiya 6 - it is my first choice for travel especially with the 50mm lens.

The Rollei is sweet though. Must take it out with my x100 soon
