The camera (see post in #447 in 'Show Your TLR' thread) arrived Friday morning, a roll of HP5+ loaded, a quick outing to a local country-park (an overcast and very windy afternoon) followed by an evening development session (Ilfosol 3 @ 1+14 for 14 mins). Scanned with my venerable Epson 3200 @ 1600dpi in 24bit RGB. Highly delighted with the results from this 1964 camera!

Enjoy your Vb, I love mine. So great to look at that big image in the finder and feel the overall quality of the camera.

Thank you all for the replies. These are just test-shots, taken on an overcast and very windy afternoon just so that I could satisfy myself that all aspects of the camera functioned correctly - and they seem to
IIRC, the last time I used a TLR was when I had a Mamiya C3 back in the mid-'70s, so I need to practice framing all over again! Also need to decide how best to hold the camera/operate the shutter release. At the moment I am favouring cradling the body in the palm of my right-hand and using the tip of my forefinger to press up on the release button.
