Leaves - Minox C

First time I've run a roll of film through one of my Minox 8x11 cameras since early last year... 😀

Godfrey, I'm amazed that you can get that much image out of such a tiny negative!

Thanks for the compliment! They're really amazing little cameras. The Complan 15mm f/3.5 lens is one of the highest performing lenses in any production camera ... over 200 LP per mm all the way to the corners/edges of the format!

The APX100 film I used for this roll is not ideal for the format .. it's a bit grainy and soft. APX25 (and a couple of other emulsions) are much less grainy and have better acutance. With APX25, I've made 11x14 inch prints that are just astonishingly detail and rich. 🙂

Fun stuff!

Godfrey, these are lovely and are scratching my half frame itch!
