[This is the Before version, the results after the jump...]

I got an email the other day from a reader with a link to some pretty amazing images.

First roll from the LC-A RL… 19Nov08 | 3

Had a few minutes today to walk down to the river and run a roll through the LC-A, unfortunately the only 35mm we had at the office was tungsten.. First thoughts on the little Russian cam are that’s its well put together and feels very smooth while shooting. The focus is easy to adjust, and the auto-exposure is a nice break from worrying about ambient light. So is this still a toy cam if it has Russian optics, auto-exposure and you can actually set the ISO? More images on my Flickr here…   [Added some B/W today]
