A few days ago I developed a roll of Efke R100 with a few self-portraits using my Rolleiflex T and, for the first time, a Rolleinar 1 close-up lens.
I saw some very good portraits on the Net using Rolleinars, so I thought - what the heck, I might try it myself.
I must say I like the results. Since these were self-portraits (with self-timer), framing is less than perfect on some shots, but there are few I like.
I just *adore* how everything in the background is blurred, and the sharpness is outstanding (Tessar 75/3.5).
Oh, and the photo can be seen here: (there was a url link here which no longer exists)
Some loss of sharpnes in the posted photo is due to scanning and compressing to JPG.
