Rollei Retro 400 S

Another Rollei, maybe too many Rolleis but they’re very cheap and I shot too many Ilfords years ago so I’m, like, recovering.

I suppose I have to apologize because the subjects too, they are very common for this blog: friends, kids, park, trees, you know.

But there’s big news hidden in this gallery: I used a new developer, the Ars-Imago FE, without even knowing a reliable developing time. So, the gentle folks at the Ars-Imago shop told me to try 12 minutes, but I’m slow so at the end it was around 30 seconds more… and not bad, not bad at all! Clean! Good contrast! A bit overdeveloped but I recovered the highlights easily in post process.
