    Great shot as always Tuna. Nice choice with the TriX. I have looked at getting the 75mm at some point.
    I am like Barney Fife, I have a gun but Andy makes me keep the bullet in my pocket..

    Shooting longer than a 50, for me, has always been strange when using a rangefinder. When compression and framing aren't as overtly available to the senses as the through-the-lens view of an SLR, I find I have to work harder at visualizing what I am about to shoot...I occasionally will force myself to shoot a few rolls with only the 75 (as I just finished doing) just to refresh the reflexive learning curve that seems so much easier with standard or wider lenses.

    If you are considering the Voigtlander 75/2.5 Color-Heliar, I would recommend it greatly for it's build, speed, results and value/price.

    Nice and neat. I really like the film look. Tri-X is magic stuff.

    To a certain degree it looks like some of your photos, Don

    Thanks for the info Tuna. Looking at the framelines I can see the 75mm would take some getting use to. The Voigtlander is the one I have been looking at.
