Hi,

Some bad news.
All the pictures I made after coffee and before lunch are severe out of 
focus.
I suspect that the lens was not on the right position after fondling 
with it during coffee. Before coffee I made two shots which are oke. 
Right after coffee I made one more on the same film/back which is out of 
focus. The whole roll after that is not oke  either.
During lunch I changed lenses and from that time everything is oke 
again. I think I made the best shots after lunch anyhow.
Well, no harm done, it was not for a client and a good lesson learned. 
ALWAYS CHECK THE POSITION OF YOUR LENS WHEN USING THE RANGEFINDER.

Oh sorry, for those who were not there, I'm talking about a Linhof 
Technika 6x9.

Cheers,

Michiel Fokkema
