Forgot to advance the 1st frame and kept on exposing it, don't even know how many exposures there are. I kind of like the effect, what do you think?

I found the subject very atractive, from a european point of view.
Mainly because it was not very straight. And, of course, the light.
Anyway, Austin, winter time, trix, close to the congress.

Ahhh I don't know about that, the main thing is that I liked your pictures and look forward to seeing more.
It is a small world, at some point I'll have to do a bit more photography around the Aylesbury Vale myself, rediscover some of those places from the past!
I always got on well with Fuji Reala, amd Kodak 160NC -- but since Fuji butchered their range of films with no clear idea what was going to stay around and what was not, I decided to put all my "colour eggs" in one basket and go with Kodak, as it happens, I prefer the colour overall. This was sealed last year when I shot about 4-5 rolls of Fujicolor 100 thinking it would be like the old Superia 100, how wrong was I...It was disastrous in a way I have never had with Kodak film, it's probably how I exposed it but none the less I have never left it to chance, and with the new Portra 160 and 400, and Ektar, I'm very happy with Kodak film (plus I have always prefer Kodak slide, Kodachrome, and now Elite Chrome 100)

p.s. someone has offered me a Microcord, I have provisionally accepted, will chase that up, sounds an interesting camera although I'm over the moon with my Autocord, even 2 years after purchase!

Go for it! I've never shot with a Microcord but if one crossed my path at a reasonable price I'd snap it up. And if you're ever journeying up this way and fancy a play with a Microflex just give me a shout and bring your own film.

I love my Yashicamat 124-G.
There are some fantastic pictures in this thread. Very inspiring!

From the first roll of film through the Kalloflex K2. It didn´t work when I got it. And its a bit worse for wear, obviously well used by a previous owner. Its been worked on too, as there are three different types of leatherettes (some even real leather). Anyhow, after a good clean, including the shutter it seems to work. These are Shanghai GP3, EI125 (f5.6@1/30s handheld), Caffenol-C-M (RS-35), 12min @ 20C/68F

Late adopter.
The results are impressive, despite your camera's unprepossessing condition on arrival. However, I for one am not surprised in the least -- I had the experience of buying a totally inoperative Kalloflex, and after servicing it works and looks like a champ. What aperture did you use for the first shot? The way this lens renders is most appealing: rather sharp at the plane of focus, yet isolates the subject nicely from the out of focus background. I'm sure the skill and vision of the photographer was a major factor in exploiting the character and potential of this lens.
Questions for you, Eirik: how did you determine that your model was a K2? Although I have seen references to different Kalloflex models, I have never come across any explanation of the distinction between variants. I have no idea what model I have, and from the few online identification photos I have seen, I can discern no differences.
Another: how do you like the handling? The coaxial focus knob and crank wind are pretty neat, and to my knowledge unique among TLRs. It's a dense little number to carry, but in turn feels solid and sturdy.

Hi there.
Regarding the handling, I´ve just posted a piece on the Kalloflex thread.
As to the model. I´ve no idea what it is. But I´ve downloaded one of Butkus´ manuals and it resembles the K2 to a T. Wether or not the other models are so outwardly similar as to prevent positive identification I wouldn´t know to be honest.
I shot both at f5.6 The second has greater DoF due to the point of focus being further away. I agree with you on the former. The OoF rendering is almost as if it were a triplet, a slight swirl to it.
And thank you for your praise.

Here's a recent one (Thursday last week) that I am happy with, it was a beautiful evening, I will have some colour ones too, but not from a TLR.
Anyway, the beautiful rolling South Downs:
Funny thing is behind me is a row of trees and behind them are some student residences at the back of the University of Brighton campus, 10 years ago I lived there and despite my love of walking and getting out and about, I had no idea this is what was on my doorstep.
It is my understanding that around here, some of the fields are to become a car park for the new football stadium... *sigh* Hopefully that's just ill-founded rumour.
