The #MPPMIcroFlex has been a real revelation. Such a good camera, and such a fabulous lens. (This ones all about that nose :D )

Forest photography can be hard. Things are often messy. But what if the mess is the subject? (this shot was not intentional, I've no real clue what happened! I think its just wildly under exposed)

There's not much to choose between the #MinoltaAutocord and #MPPMIcroFlex lenses. Both lovely more than sharp enough for my eyes, and both give lovely focus fall off.

Travel camera downside of my #MinoltaAutocord : the yashica wide angle adapter doesn't fit it (the viewing lens doesn't attach due to depth). It *does* fit the #MPPMicroflex , though loading that is a touch more stressful. May need to find an original minolta WA adapter

Just scanned the test roll from the #MinoltaAutocord. Hard to tell as the weather was a bit dull, and I didn't get as good a variety of test pics. The lens is definitely more than sharp enough. Going on gut instinct, the #MPPMicroflex feels like it has better overall sharpness. The minolta taking lens could do with a clean.
Still lovely though, and that focusing lever is a dream (it's hard to go back to the knowledge focusing on the MPP

Some pictures from my trip to Richmond (to see The Shark is Broken, great fun). First two are with my "new" #MPPMicroFlex

I think flickr keeps photos at full res (vs the one I upload here that come via Google Photos). I've created an album of my #MPPMicroFlex shots, some tests, some with more intent. Some use janky aux lenses. Fantastic camera with a great lens.

This is a quick invert of a badly scanned neg, but the #MPPMicroflex is looking good! Exposures are all good, and the lens seems great!

Unfortunately the #MPPMicroFlex packed in after 1 roll. Aperturejammed, and the shutter release became very Veryan unresponsive. I shall have to keep an eye out for another tlr (maybe a microcord mkii, or a minolta)

It's #NewCameraDay! (and New Camera Bag day!). This is an #MPPMIcroFlex, the successor to my old #MPPMicrocord , and the last MPP TLR after import duty on Rolleis was dropped around the mid 1950s.
Exactly as described by the vendor. Everything working, but speeds under 1/4s stick a bit.
Much improved from the microcord. Easier loading (no red window), better build, couple shutter (optional multiexposure), coupled aperture/shutter for EV. And the case front flap comes off. #BelieveInFilm
