First roll with Bessa-R and Ultron 35mm

[Epimetheus]

I just got my self a Bessa-R with an Ultron 35/f1.7 from the classifieds and here are the first results: http://www.markuspuustinen.com/galleriat/07/03/first_shots_bessa/

Few of the first rolls will be me learning to use the camera. I wasn’t able to much concentrate on photography on this one. I like the camera very much so far.

Film used was Ilford XP2 and it was scanned by the photolab. I was surprised how much contrast there is. Maybe too much for my taste even though I usually like there to be a lot of contrast.

Some great shots there - I think you and that lens have a great future together. I particularly like no 4, the one with the cyclist. (Could I be cheeky enough to suggest a crop? I'd be tempted to crop a little off the bottom so that the cyclist's shadow is pointing directly at the corner of the frame, just to see what it looks like - but it might not work).
