Photography Matters Ep 48 – Rollei Retro 400s, Initial Thoughts and Sample Shots

October 16, 2018 by Ted

Remember last year when we found out Fujifilm was going to discontinue ACROS in the 35mm and 120 format this year, and I started testing different types of film to replace ACROS, the film that I had shot pretty much exlusively for the past couple of years? During that time I had purchased a couple rolls of Rollei Retro 400s, but before I had a chance to shoot it I had kind of fallen in love with Tri-X. Well this past week, wanting to do something different, I decided to go ahead and try out the Rollei and in this episode I want to share my initial thoughts and some sample images.
