A couple of weeks ago I was at passing through the civic district near downtown Honolulu. Turns out the Mango Fest was in progress. As it turned out I had a zone focus camera, a Voigtlander Symbolica with me. It’s an incredibly heavy beast even if it’s tiny. The lens is great and, apparently, the metering is still good. However, being zone focused it can vary in results as you learn.
I’ve a few images from the festival, mostly mangos, and as you’ll see my results vary. These were developed at the lab used by Treehouse and scanned by me on my new Pacific Image PrimeFilm XA. Good stuff…




It’s that last one that’s most out of focus. Still the colors are mostly great considering I was using Kodak 200 ColorPlus, about the cheapest stuff around.
