[Leica] Medium Format Rolleiflex vs Super Ikonta III

[Don Dory]

I actually prefer the Ikonta roots image; I like the imperfections compared
to the Rollei.   Some days I fall into an older vision.

Your medium format images are impressive in the slightly increased
composition thought: probably due to slightly slower controls compared to
an M.

Then there is the tonality of medium format and FP4.  Ilford was always
more of a stretch in the US compared to Plus X.

It is a pleasure to see your images.
