Lovely Steve, the way the church appears to be in a mist, the way everything seems to fade, you can indeed get some lovely results with these old cameras, maybe that is why I use nothing else, indeed, got another one yesterday, a Ensign autorange 220 from the 40's,

I think your film / developer combination works very well here Steve, I had no idea that it was Fomapan 400 just going by the print.
The grain has been minimised and the contrast tamed. Nice to know

Thanks for the kind comments, I do like the idea of not having to carry a rucksack of gear around sometimes, I can understand why you have a collection of old folders Richard. They also seem to work well with the Fomapan 400.
Marty the prescysol does give very fine grain, I normally use Delta 100 film with my Mamiya 645 and the grain is almost non existent.
Thanks again
Steve

The hazy appearance of the building in the background gives a mysterious feel to this image. Its like the opening scene of a spooky story. Well spotted.

Very nice - I agree with Alex, the background provides a really nice contrast to the railings.
