Jim I enjoyed seeing those again from a new perspective of being a new 6x6 
owner. I can see I'll have to work at using the full
frame like your compositions here. I was mentally thinking, oh well I'll 
crop everything to 2:3.

Cheers
Hoppy

Brian:

I only have a few scanned and available... I haven't scanned any taken 
with the 2.8f 12/24 or the Ikoflex.  I have some taken with the 
Mamiyaflex 220F and the various Retinas but think that I've posted them 
here in the past.

Here's my Baby Rollei:

And some photos taken with it:

Here's my Rolleicord VB with the 24 frame (35mm) adapter:

And here it is with the Yashica lenses which convert the focal length 
from 75mm to about 50mm:

Some pseudo panoramas taken with the VB:

Without add-on lens

With wide angle add-on lens:

Have shown all of these to the LUG before, but I can't remember? I 
should rescan and re-Photoshop them as my skills in both areas have 
improved a bit since then.
