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

October 16, 2018 By Ted Leave a Comment

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.
