Hi,
As promised, here's the scans from the first roll I shot with my Zorki, a roll of Portra 400VC. I was still struggling with framing and exposure back then, so 2 of the 5 attached pictures are slightly underexposed, but the result is still okay.
Photo #1 was taken in a train and, like #5 (underexposed) nicely shows the colours of the 400VC through Industar-22. More muted than usual, it gives a more low-key image than usual. I should try out Kodak 400UC (has this been renamed recently ?). Photo #2 is slightly underexposed, but the chimneys shows the loss of contrast that occurs when the sun is near or in the frame. I've had frames where the chimneys were solarized 🙂 Photo #3 shows the amount of detail the combo can produce (bigger scan on demand) and #4 is there because, well, I love those cars 🙂
I've also updated my gallery with more than I can attach here. There's a few new ones that I shot with my SLR (Japan and Wroclaw galleries). The rangefinder gallery contains the attached pictures plus more scans of that Zorki 400VC roll, and I've added a new gallery: Auschwitz. As usual, when viewing photos in my gallery, click "comments" for explanation.
