Robot Note 1

Here are the very first results from my Robot IIa (Star 50?) with Schneider Kreuznach Xenon 1.9/40mm. Negative format is 24x24mm.  Ruined the rest of this 36 exposure roll of Fujicolor 400 because I had no manual and figured out the film rewinding by trial and error (mostly error for this roll). Everything is different on a Robot. Rotary Shutter, spring-wound shutter release  and film advance. No exposure meter or rangefinder. Guestimated focussing using hyperfocal distance - yet fully exchangeable lenses (30-150mm).

This is what a Robot negative strip look like:

 Here are some higher resolution scans from this strip with minor tweaking in PS Elements:

Here is an image from my second test roll: Fujifilm 100. For some reason this roll showed a lot more flare and low contrast:
