Got Portra 400 developed this week which I had in my Rolleicord Va (think its from 1958). Really need to use it more! These were in Cambridge during lockdown.

I heard the 'Brentwood Gazette ' newspaper Staff Medium Format Camera being used for their first 'Colour Pages' was on sale in Lindrum Studios ( Brentwood) - Staff Photographer told me they got £50 quids for it so i rushed there and asked and the bloke said £60 quids and its yours so I let him have his £10 quids and it is a 1962 Vb with sharp 75mm f3.5 Xenar and I have it set to 16-on with the kit.

I did a VIDEO about my Rolleicord 16-on kit -- you can see it here :

Great shots, I do like Cambridge. When I go there to do my Electrical Testing up that way I normally go out on my bike along the Cam and surround paths. I shall look out for these buildings next time I'm up there in 2021

Rollei TLR were often used by Wedding photographers due to their top quality. The Flex with the 80mm F2.8 Planar was awesome. The Self timer is good to use instead of a Cable release if you haven't on to hand too.
