TW687: Beat the traffic

Thiophene_ Guy

I was testing a recently found Agfa Super Silette-LK with an indefinitely long expired roll of Fuji 800 film (causing underexposed, "thin" negatives). Camera design allows one to meter while looking from above and hyperfocal focus (with markings on the lens barrel) so it is not necessary to raise the camera to one's eye to catch a scene. This transient view was captured while holding the camera at waist level. Lab scans were darkened with a curves adjustment and straightened slightly but are otherwise un-doctored.

F/22, 1/250s, hyperfocal focus
Agfa Super Silette-lK (Color Apotar 2.8/45mm)
Expired Fuji 800 (should have added a stop for best exposure)
