Interesting that Svema has been revived and produced with some of the original equipment in the Ukraine than shipped to New Jersey for distribution. Must have quite a fan base.
Flat is nice. Curling and buckling in an enlarger could reek havoc with focus with darkroom prints.
You seem to have your exposure and development times down pat. Do you ever get silver halide prints made?
People often now add grain to mimic film, when actually back in the day it was the opposite. The quest for holy grail of grain free.
One thing I like about digital is the flip up lcd screen. Used to use waist level exclusively on my old Mamiya. Kind of a lost art. I vaguely remember trying it with a Nikon F but screen was too small. You should post a picture of the camera.

A nice looking bit of kit Erich. The body shape and back are very similar to that Edixa I spoke about earlier.

Thanks, I'm going to have to look up the Edixa. Sounds intriguing.

I’m guessing mine was fairly early as most on eBay currently are Wirgin Edixa. The models and specs are similar to those available in the early 60’s though. I swapped mine for two-and-a-half vintage vee-twin Zenith motorcycles plus some Douglas spares. I probably got the better end of that deal despite the bikes being in bits! Let’s know if you get around to buying an Edixa.
