Matej, Bessa L and 21/4 was my favourite combination for about two years! Great lens, isn't it... I wish this were a little larger, but it's still large enough to see the nice rendering of colours and textures.

Roger,

I also find the Bessa very good - it's really easy to get used to, it's small, light, and looks good too :-) The exposure meter seems fairly accurate, although especially with the 21mm lens I have to be careful about where I point it at to get a correct reading. So far I've only had two problems:

1) When loading the film, the leader tends to loosen up quite a lot on the take-up spool, so I have to manually hold it tight in place for about three turns to make sure the film will advance properly. Is this typical for the camera, or do you think it's something wrong specifically with my piece?

2) After developing the films, I found out I need to pay more attention to the way I'm holding the camera - I had the bottom right corner of quite a few frames covered by a finger. One would think that after four years of shooting, that kind of stuff doesn't happen ;-)

wonderful perspective. beautiful composition. stunning album.


Roger Williams   {K:83282} 9/12/2006
Yes, the meter is centrally weighted but with W/A lenses tends to take in too much light from the sky. I had the same experience. I have never had a problem with loose film on the take-up spool, so the tensioning may need adjustment. As for including fingers, after FORTY years of shooting that kind of thing still occasionally happens with me. My excuse is fisheye lenses with 140 to 180 degree FOV! Watch your toes, too!!

Great light and shadow. And a mysterious corner on this street that looks very old. I love that you left a small triangle of blue sky.

Cheers, Leora
