I'm really getting to like the Efke 25.  It's a real format stretcher and
just looks nice.  Gotta watch the contrast.  I'm rating it at 25 outdoors
and developing in Rodinal 1:100 15 min at 68 deg. with agitiation every 3
min. I've been using it for seascapes with my "beach cam", an old Kodak
Reflex II, which is impressing me too.  If I slip on a rock and accidently
drop the camera in the ocean, I'm out about 25 bucks.  But I'll tell you the
negs sure don't look like it :)
