Thanks, Darren - I'm not sure what the equivalency for this lens would
be, but wide open (and also on an extension tube) it is very soft except
in the center with next to no DOF. Very sharp when stopped down, though.

That's a lovely image. That 105mm f/2.4 is a thin DOF lens of creamy
wonder. I'm to lazy to do the technical comparison right now, but it
HAS to be the equivalent of an f/1.2 on 35mm. The difference is you
still get a good center of nice sharpness even wide open with the 6x7.
I dont' care for most f/1.2 images that I've seen (or taken) wide
open.
On a related note, an Argoflex TLR also followed me home a couple of
months ago, and a Kodak Reflex (TLR) was a part of the same haul. Too
many cameras, too little time.

I was testing an old Argoflex TLR yesterday and had to pull out a partially
exposed roll of film when it stopped advancing - figured I shoot some cat
photos with the part of the roll that was not ruined. Here's one:

Pentax 6x7, Takumar 105mm f2.4 on extension tube, J&C Classic Pan 400 in
Rodinal 1:50.
I managed to tighten a loose screw on the Argoflex and it seems to be
working now (at least that part of it.)
