My Leica IIIf RD had some pinhole light leaks that would show up at times, so I repaired with some matte black fabric paint on both shutter curtails. A test roll of Rollei RPX 100 home developed in Caffenol CH and the lens is an Industar 22 P (50/3.5) ... no signs of light leaks now. Happy camper.

First outing with new acquisition Olympus 35SP. I loaded it with Delta 400 but first chance to use it was a summer beach holiday. I love Delta because of the contrasty low light rendering but sunny beach days just kill it. However these ones turned out OK. The photos were taken either in shade or when it was overcast.

And this panorama is a result of a glitch in the camera or scanner.

If you're allowing the scanner to auto select frames, I expect it has just got a bit confused. If you manually select the marque you should get the full frame

Thanks Nick. I'll have a look at it again tomorrow. But I also really like how the crop turned out.

The crop did look better, mainly because it got rid of the grainy sky. Shame it lost the lower legs of the foreground couple
