In my November 29, 2013 blog post I offered my initial
comments on this film stock after shooting my very first roll. The results were
beautiful then and a year later I am still really pleased with this film.
The shot above was taken of an abandoned structure overgrown
by weeds beside a small pond. Its an interesting structure and I can’t figure
out what it was but the light was golden and the reflections in the pond offered
an intriguing image that begged to be captured on this warm and colorful film.
This one was shot with the Pentax ZX-L but I didn't record and don’t recall the
settings.
In my comments last year I compared this film to Fuji Velvia
and I still believe there are similarities between the two. The Rollei is
faster by a stop and the clear base seems to have been designed for scanning.
Both films offer a warm and brilliant color palette that is pure magic for
shots taken during the “Golden Hours” and beautiful anytime.
