[Leica] A casual portrait, Gemma with the MF Super Ikonta

[Lluis Ripoll]

Hi Don,

Thank you very much for the information, I will pass it on to Gemma to see if she is interested.

It is true in the photo that I have published the hair appears with little detail, however it has detail, in addition the negative is more transparent so when using it in the enlarger it can offer greater richness of detail.

Thanks again!

All the best
Lluis
