The Rolleicord VA is a medium format (6×6) camera using 120 film. It is a twin lens reflex (TLR) camera. It has Xenar 1:3.5 75mm as a taking lens and 1:3.2 75mm as a viewing lens. This camera is version 2, which, according to camera-wiki.org, was in production from 1958 to 1961.
I am not a purist. Not when it comes to the things I enjoy, nor the way I work, and definitely not in the way I approach photography. I love shooting film, but will spend time in post getting the image to look how I want (to the point that traits and distinctions between emulsions get lost in the process). I often shoot digital, too.
Since getting back to film photography I’ve been wanting to try out some medium format photography. I had previously only shot a few rolls during my first studies in the beginning of the 2000’s. An opportunity presented itself when a friend loaned me a Rolleicord TLR.
