I pulled both steel rollers out of the #Flexaret camera and polished them with a grinding paste on a drill. I also polished the film path, it shines beautifully. We'll see if there are any scratches on the next film.

@panchromaholic I expect you talk about 120 Fomapan 200, right? It is infamous for that, I know. But there is definitely a problem inside #Flexaret. The film is otherwise without scratches and I can’t see any usual #Fomapan200 emulsion defects (like „black rain“, missing emulsion on spots or other emulsion irregularities).

@panchromaholic Yes, the spacing is excellent.

Unfortunately, there are short longitudinal scratches in the corner of some of the images, so I'll give it another try. The first roller doesn't apparently move completely freely yet and sometimes gets stuck. It's not on all the images, so there's a chance to improve it. It was #Fomapan200, so any mistake in the film advance is visible on the emulsion.

Yes, the screen in my #Flexaret is original with the guide lines drawn with blue ink.

Apparently I messed up loading the film and I have eleven and a third of a frame. The loader length is different than on my #PentaconSix. Second try will be better.

Yesterday I cleaned, polished and lightly oiled the rollers in the film path to prevent film damaging and today I took the #Flexaret with me to work. On the way back home, I took pictures of everything that crossed my path. I didn't count the frames but framecounter shows the all twelve frames were exposed. We will see...

Har vært hos papsen i dag. Han går i sitt nittiåttende år og er ganske redusert, men vi koser oss med bilder. Her er han absolutt på høyden der han fingår i bygatene i Trondheim på 60-tallet, med meg i vogna må vite. #60s #flexaret #urbannature

A lonely Gothic tower

Tower of a gothic temple that was damaged during the 1891 earthquake. The
temple still stands in the Bratislava Old Town with a new tower. This old tower
has been transferred to the Janko Kráľ Park.

Rybné námestie

A square in the historic centre of Bratislava. Dominated by St Martin's Cathedral, coronation church of the Kingdom of Hungary. There has been another beautiful place of worship - Neolog Synagogue right beside the cathedral. Unfortunately the synagogue did not survive the ruthless building of the SNP Bridge by communist regime.

Tatt med TA-redaksjonens #Flexaret - svevende i et helikopter! Store byggearbeider der den gang, noen litt hemmelige – ikke så lett å se uten en «lift».
