Remarkable, in particular I would be curious to use the one on top, although certainly at the beginning the results would be bad.

Hello and thank you Claudio.
Actually, the use of a bioptic lens like the Rollei is not exactly simple when compared to a
camera of today, especially if it is digital. It is uncomfortable to aim, it has only 12 exposures, it has a light meter
only in name but not comparable to the current ones, manual focus,... etc. But Rollei with
the Leica M and Nikon F have photographed the whole world for decades. Those were other times... perhaps :-/ :-/!!
Kind regards, Antonio

I agree with Claudio, the Rolleiflex has a charm of its own; Intriguing collection to say the least, I would take a few shots with all of them :-)

Sestri, I agree with Rollei. Taking a few shots with all of them seems to me a useless exercise
You know very well that to get good results you also need to familiarize yourself with the medium. A few clicks
or a roller for each machine bring poor results. However, they are fascinating machines for
their mechanics and their history.
A cordial greeting, Antonio

Il TOPCON con il 58mm è fantastico. Ci vollero molti anni prima che arrivasse qualcosa di meglio.

Hi Saverio.
I rephotographed the group of my analogues from the 60s and 70s and I posted the photo
to share with all the Juzzini the memories that these cameras can arouse.
A good Sunday, Antonio

Thank you Jorg Beschmann.
I agree with what you say. The Topcon was the most accredited enemy of the Nikon F.
In my opinion it had a superior mechanics to that of Nikon and a superb construction.
The only drawback was represented by the too small diameter of the optical nozzle
(the same as the Exakta one) and this limited the use of long telephoto and wide angles ... Too bad!!
Kind regards, Antonio

Maybe you use the fine Tokyo Kogaku lens with a mirrorless again. Link shows a pic taken with the Sony A7 III and the Tokyo Kogaku RE Auto-Topcor 25mm f3.5.

Thanks again Jorg.
I don't have mirror-less cameras and therefore I can't use the Topcon lens.
I can't see your photo that you indicate on the link. Can you postpone it?

They are all splendid devices, but what captures me the most is the one in the center.

Thinner5
Even the one on the top left is no joke ;-) ;-) !!
The one in the center (the Contarex) was the queen for mechanical workmanship and above all for the price.
In '64 it cost 328,000 Lire with the Planar 50/2 (Vasari guide) and my salary was 90,000 Lire!!
However, for those of a certain age and passion for photography, almost all cameras from the
60s/70s/80s are masterpieces of optical/mechanical engineering.
Kind regards, Antonio
