The last photo is my favorite from the roll.
I’m planning to test out the tilt feature soon. Next is some shots from my newest camera, the Rolleiflex SL66E, my dream camera and the most expensive one I have. This is my favorite shot in all the square photos I’ve taken. His tip is super helpful to me since I was stuff my eye to the magnifier glass as I saw others did. Rick Oleson is a man who sale focusing screens for waist level camera and he’s been using waist level for about 30 years now. Thanks to Rick Olesen for this focus tip. Then, you can flip down the magnifier glass and re-compose, this way is much faster than you stuff your eye in the magnifier glass and bend your back up and down for the shots. One note I may add to using the waist level finder is don’t stuff your eye into the magnifier glass for “fine focus” (as you see so many Youtube photographers do), but rather put the camera down at your waist level and flip out the magnifier glass, at this distance, the circle “focusing spot” (in the middle of your ground glass) will fill up the entire magnifier glass, makes it super easy and fast to fine focus. The feeling of seeing the photos from the ground glass is so satisfied. Shooting from the waist level is truly enjoyable. I’ve been curious about square format since I learned about the famous Hasselblad V series and the amazing experience of shooting from the waist level. I got myself a twin lens reflect camera, the Minolta Autocord CdS, to start shooting square photos.
