Makina 67 - first roll

@eddy1123,

I reckon that your images could be enhanced thru post processing. Out of curiosity, I tried adjusting one of them in Lightroom (my apology if you are offended.)

Attached below just for comparison:

Thanks. Not offended at all. It does looks better

What kind of lab scans with a v800? There’s your problem. That’s a home scanner.

Where I live smaller labs (supposedly better because they are not for the masses) offer Epson scan and Hasselblad x5 scan. Some do not have Noritsu or Fuji due to diminishing demand of film scanning. For bigger labs they offer Noritsu Fuji as low end (cheapest) and then Epson v850 and some with Nikon Coolscan (mid end) and Hassy and drum scan for the high end. I went with Epson because I was told it is more of the mid range. But will try Noritsu as some people are quite pleased with the result. Let's see how it turns out.

I'm quite happy with the quality and price of the Noritsu scans I've been getting

And one more question. Is it the general consensus that superposed image focusing (Makina 67) is much easier than the split which my Rolleiflex 2.8fx is using? Because I find it much harder to nail the focus on my Rollei. For Makina I nailed 100 percent a where Rollei only about 60 percent. Not sure if there is a problem with the Rollei

The rangefinder patch is quite large and I nail the focus every time.

There's quite a difference between focusing a rangefinder at eyelevel and using a waist level finder. I would not expect there to be an issue with the Rollei, but perhaps with your precision using it....
