Evening Folks.

Hope you're all well. It's pretty hot here so I think It'll be a late night.

I received my r2a the other day after it was delayed in customs where I was sadly charged £170. Since the value was marked as 1100 rather than what I paidd for it I was severely overcharged. I'm hoping I have a case for reclaim but it's not looking promising.

Anyways. I am absolutely in love with this camera!!
I develope 4 rolls of film today and one of them was taken with the bessa.
The depth of field at 1.4 is amazing! Also the amount of light available is incredible. Across 100 at 1.4 inoor still equals decent speeds.

I'll have to pop some images up on flickr so I can link them to here. They are currently on my facebook account.

My only gripe I have about this camera is the noise of the shutter and also the stiffness/noise of the film advance.
Apart from that there's nothing to note.

It feels great in my hand. The viewfinder is fantastic.
I really can't wait to get through the 36 rolls of film that I have 😀

Cheers


Michael
