I imagine the kickwheel in your pictures must have had a pretty massive flywheel to overcome the friction. Ceramics is an amazing, ancient technology, now utilized in space age applications. Thank you for posting this set of pictures in particular, though I enjoy all your shots in the High Atlas mountains!

My pleasure, and thanks again to you for your interest and comments!

The image's metadata says you used f1.4 on the camera to scan the image. Is that right?

No, i probably forgot to program the non Z lens i was using in the camera, was using a micro nikkor on bellows so no lens data are transferred to the exif and the last lens used then is recorded as being the lens and aperture used.
