Gee Gary I think that looks good esp for something unintentionally pulled by 4(?) stops? The stand dev was kind to it!! Lens looks nice and sharp.

Rodinal stand developing doesn't care what ISO you're shooting at, it will develop anything :)

Very nice Gary.

All this talk of small Rolleis got me lusting for a QZ 35T.

Those cost a bit more than my £8.50 XF35

A mild understatement ;)  Yes, they are quite expensive, not that compact either come to think of it. Oh well, must resist more 135 cameras, really want to go back to more MF and LF.
