[Leica] Nathan's PAD 7/6/2021: testing my new Rolleiflex

[Lluis Ripoll]

Hi Michiel,

I think that the Hilux Screen is from Maxwell and it is very expensive, I have read good reviews for the Rick Oleson Screens, I saw one from a friend installed on a Rolleiflex and it is a great improvement, at least for my Rolleifex “E”, if you have other informations about screens I would appreciate your opinion, the only thing I’ve heart is that many announced screens in e-Bay are not enought good and the Oleson one is a good one, this is the information I’ve read:

>> “New” is a relative term, this camera was made roughly around the time I was born. But it is in beautiful condition, and it was thrill to have a TLR again after many years, when it arrived in my office a couple of weeks ago. Yesterday I received back from the lab my two test rolls, and here are three images from the first of those rolls.
