Excellent shots! What film did you use?
Finally got a "Texas Leica"!

Thanks! I am using Acros 100 developed in Pyrocat MC for 12.5 minutes.
Acros 100 is probably my favorite B&W film, and in 120, is some of the cheapest you can find.

I just got back from a trip to Minnesota to see the family. On the way, I stopped by Devils Tower to stretch the legs and do a little photography for a half hour or so.
I mainly used my X100S and an IR filter (I REALLY like shooting in IR and digital is just easier and cheaper).
Well, I developed and scanned in the roll I shot through my Fuji G690BL medium format camera. These were all shot on Across 100 and developed in Pyrocat MC for 12.5 minutes. Scanned in with an Epson V750 Pro negative scanner.
The light in these wasn't the best. I waited a little for the right light with my digital IR images. For these images I just snapped the photos without waiting for good light, and it shows.

Here's one action shot from the roll. The G690BL actually worked very well for this. I just prefocused and tracked my nephew, tripping the shutter when he got to the prefocused area. I couldn't do this near as easily with my other medium format cameras!

While I've tried using an RB67, I found the ground glass and heavy size to be very cumbersome... and I found out all too quickly that my brain doesn't work really well with my type of work (quick reaction) with flipped orientation. Also, much prefer the "wide" aspect ratio of 4x6 (in comparison to 6x6 square or even 6x7 semi-square) so am curious about the Texas Leica!
