Rick Oleson Brightscreen - Magic

Just received my Rick Oleson Brightscreen, this one is diagonal split focus aid in a microprism collar (BrightScreen MPD). Absolutely stunning quality and so easy to focus. Highly recommend this upgrade.

On a side note, stay away from those Chinese screens on eBay. Removing it was a nightmare, they are poorly finished and burred around the edges. It was snagged at the bottom edges on the slide spring thing, lucky to get it out without fucking the camera. Got a full eBay refund months after purchase. (See pic 7)

I've always loved this picture of Heath Ledger at Burning Man so much!

The clips of Heath at burning man are also some of my favorites in I Am Heath Ledger. What are some of your guys favorites?

Edit; some people on the burning man subreddit claim to have went to it with Heath back then and say this was taken at Burning Man in 2000.

Joined the club! Automat 3.5 MX

Bought my first Rolleiflex! $125 on Facebook Marketplace. All shutter speeds except 1s and 1/2s work great. I 3D printed a lens cap for now and ordered a bright focusing screen from eBay. Is there anything I should know? I also have a great Ricoh Diacord, so I’m curious to see if there’s any appreciable difference in image quality. Can’t wait!

It wasn't £50 from a thrift store, nor did I find it in my dead uncle's cupboard... and now I need your help Reddit!

Any other baby rolleiflex owners here

This was my grandpas, he mostly did large format landscape shots. The baby rolleiflex has been sitting on my shelf for years but I just shot my first roll it and am waiting for it to come back from the lab.

Correa

Buenas! Estoy buscando una correa para mi Rolleiflex Automat de 1938 pero las que he encontrado me dicen que no le sirven a mi modelo, alguien podría enviarme el enlace de alguna correa que le pueda servir a mi modelo? Como puedo saber si le sirve a mi modelo o no? Gracias

Missing Screw

Hey friends! Hoping someone might know the size screw I need to replace here? Bonus points if you know where I can snag one. I believe this is a 3.5 MX extra extra bonus points if you correct me lol

More 2.8F shots and I couldn’t be more pleased.

Having some issues with my lab scans, but the quality and clarity of the camera are proving to be there. I really enjoy having this camera now. Simple and intentional photography seemed so lost for a long time.

Kodak Gold 200 and Ilford HP5 Plus

Film Testing my Ancient Rolleiflex Compur 622

I decided to film test the near 100 year old Rolleiflex I picked up at the market last Sunday. Got my scans back today and I have to say that I think I know why you guys like these cameras so much!

Just want to say I know these aren’t great photos, Just wanted to test that it was working :)
