Folks,

I've been too busy with work to do much on the photo lists, but this thread 
caught my eye.  I was going through some Rolleiflex prints the other day and 
noticed the difference, after shooting almost nothing but digital for a while.  
To my eye, at least, there is really a significant difference.

I think I'm going to dust off the Rolleicord IV and shoot a few rolls.

Ken
