About First of the shots taken with my 'new' 1939 Rolleiflex Automat. This camera is great for 'spy' shots as its a TLR so you look down from above and nobody suspects...

I owe the inspiration for buying this contraption to Bea Friedeli and I LOVE THIS CAMERA (even if I am still figuring out how to work it!)

Stay tuned for more . . .

Any of you experienced 6x6ers / Rolleiflexers I would really love to hear any feedback you may have -- be brutal, I'm the first to admit I'm still learning -- hence the title i gave to this one..

to capture moments is better for me from artistic ones, these ones we will remember them, the others I don't think.
excellent meaning.
I have the same level of camera Minolta Dynax 5 and it is loaded with kodad pro BW negative film asa 400

Very nice shot. The viewing screen can also improve the sense of composition. It even helped me years ago! ;-)

Best regards,
