I shot this on a Voigtländer Bessa L rangefinder and Voigtländer 21mm f/4 Color-Skopar.

The film was Kodak 100 (cheap consumer stuff) reversed into a cartridge backwards and shot through the celluloid. As the curl went the wrong way, I could not get it to load in a Ricoh GR no matter what I did to it.

Exposure was wide open at f/4 and probably around 1/15s for late afternoon indoor light. Shutter speed as indicated on the meter. I pushed the film a stop at the lab to account for the light lost shooting backwards through the film. It could have done with another half stop, but the lab can't do half stops. There seems a lot more grain. I probably wouldn't get away with pushing 400 ASA like that, so maybe it's best to add a stop and a half in EV compensation, or DX-override.
 
Great color tones and of course, nice model too! I somehow hope that the M mount module and manual lenses will give us part of this "film days" magic? ;)

No problem. Get out a screwdriver and flip the sensor round.

Actually, if you caught my other thread, you'll see that I've been messing with sensors too.
