The Melbourne-ness of Civic?

Of course there's no way to replicate Melbourne's alleyways, but Canberra holds a few surprises, after all, the Sydney and Melbourne buildings are nearly 100 years old, gasp!!!

So I met up with Adam and Tabitha at The Phoenix where I first had a play with some of Adam's stereograph images. He really has wet my appetite to find a Holmes Viewer and get going on making some of my own. He pointed out that a pair of 6x7 images (uncut) are of the correct dimensions to do such. The cogs have started spinning.

Then it was time to load the Rolleiflexs and for me to bring out the mammoth Koni-Omegaflex before we hit the streets. The Koni with the M6 around my neck was the perfect combo for MF, 35mm and shared metering. I had a ball before we headed inside for Japanese!.

So how did the Koni go? Well the lens seems nice and sharp as reported. It seems foolproof, apart from my obvious focus issues. It's really heavy (especially when carting it around on the tredly). All good really, except, is my head bent? It seems almost all of the images are tilted slightly to the right........?!?!?!?

I dare say it'll be another couple of rolls before I'm confident all is good with this one.
