Hello. I'm new to APUG...

Dave98498

... and I use a Rolleicord.

This is my first post, and I am just re-starting my photography hobby after a lay-off of almost forty years. I have used various TLRs in the past, as well as larger format (4x5 Speed Graphic) but Rolleis are my first love.

I look forward to exploring this and the other groups in APUG with much interest.

Dave
 
Hi Dave, I see you are in the Pacific NW. Anywhere near Portland?
 
I am also new to APUG and a ROLLEI user (as well as PENTAX) but have only just found this Group-- I have joined a few other groups and have difficulty to upload photos as it says 'my quota has been exceded' by so many KB's -- not sure if the pics are too big or what !
Anyhow-- I have several ROLLEIFLEXES now -- a 1959 2.8 model E2 Xenotar ( given),a 1960's 2.8F Planar bought from a Camera Club member, a 3.5F Planar bought cheaply from a local businessman,a 1960's 3.5 E Planar given by a Camera Club member. I also have the 35mm set for the older Xenotar model,but have taken it out now.
I have been in photography since 1951 when I joined the School Photo-Soc and have been in 'Clubs' ever since. I have alot of different gear (mostly GIVEN-- pleases the WIFE, although SHE has about 50 handbags and 300 pairs of SHOES !)
 
Welcome to APUG.
