Just when I was about ready to climb the walls, Al Martin came to my rescue on the pola roid. I had never used my light meter with any camera except the polaroid. After I used lt with the Rolelcord, I forgot to change the ASA reading. So simple. AI tells me it has one of the best lenses made. Nice to know lt was the photographer and not the camera! Then I went to another ex pert on the Rollicord. This lit tle switch has to be on X and not M because If it is on M the shutter opens AFTER the flash which explains why I was get ting blanks! This gentleman told me the Rollicord was one of the best cameras made and would take the abuse that a newspaper camera has to take. Now with all of that help. can anyone explain how come my picture of Mabel Allen modeing her 3 piece pants suit shows only the top half.
