Hola amigos!

Rollei 35S / Portra 400

Mainly set at f16 1/500, forget about it and shoot.

Great shots. The Rollei 35 S seems to be a very good travel camera.

Thanks. Yeah, it's wonderful. It's zone focus so fast film and sun helps take the worry and missed shots out of the picture. And the Sonnar lens is so sharp. The best lenses I've ever had have been on the Rollei and the Minolta TC-1, another super tiny camera.

I love that shot of the cars on the beach.  I need to get down there sometime, I’ll be close in a few weeks, going to the keys.  We have a lot of old View-Master reels that my wife’s grandfather shot down there in the 1950’s, doesn’t seem like much has changed.

Lovely set of photos. Cuba's top of my bucket list - though not sure if I'll ever get there.

I've got the Rollei 35T - great camera but a Tessar f3.5 rather that your 35S Sonnar f2.8.  I'm keeping an eye out for a 35S as I could do with an extra stop of light in the UK; especially this time of year!
