So, I have a confession. Part of my recent lack of posts is due to getting my new camera up to snuff.

Test shots from my new Voigtländer Bessa II w/ Color-Heliar 105mm, shot on Rollei RPX 400 w/ yellow filter.

Just finished processing 2 x 220 rolls of ECN-2. This is IMAX film lightly repackaged for still photography.

I'm glad I've tried it, but I don't think that I'll be doing going through that hassle again any time soon.

The tariffs are already having an impact on my photography. Getting camera accessories and parts from Germany and Japan just became much more complicated.
