Interesting observation. Do you think it might be the Skopar, at least in part?

In my experience, the CV Color-Skopar 35 has very little distortion. The ridge line of that garage roof definitely has a downward sag

Hi,

Just popped in after my little session with the K1000, will now on go more analog.

Look at these reflections!

- Pentax K1000 - 50mm lens
- Kodak 800 film for single use camera, loose roll provided with the K1000, shoot at 640 and pushed then one step in development.
- raw scan from the developer.

Yes. Should may have taken a photo of the roll, but it was stated on the roll, Kodak 800 - for use in single use camera. Also, the actual roll had a different knob, but it still worked in a regular camera.

I may have bought some single use cameras just after they expired to retrieve the film... but that’s been decades...

Despite Rollei's statements that Nightbird is ISO 640-800 and suitable for low light situations, the last few times I had tried it suggested that that speed rating is massively optimistic. I was definitely metering this at 400 or possibly even 200 and shooting only on extremely sunny days.

It's the closest I've ever come to redscale working properly for me.
