Test roll. I was looking for a replacement for my dead soviet Lomo LC-A (I had two of them, and both died the same way 🙄). While I have easier access to different cameras, I decided to try out Porst CM Auto 135 (same as Cosina CX-2). I was happy to find that it's way more reliable and well-built. But I became so annoyed at how comfortable and pleasant the shooting process was. Why? Because I was disappointed with the results. There are a lot of out-of-focus frames, although I never had such a problem with the same zone-focusing system in Lomo. I'm not sure if it's a problem with the lens itself or it's because of the wider apertures the camera chooses, especially with the low-speed film. The other thing I found disturbing is the weird soapiness of the out-of-focus objects, especially in the foreground. I can appreciate dreamy effects, but this is something different. As for now, I still love the results from my Lomo more (I can only say about soviet ones). While I can still buy it, I will, even If I ought to always carry a screwdriver in my pocket. Spoiler: the second roll will be much better. It makes me even more uncertain about this camera. P.S. It was my first roll of Kodak Ectar 100. I fell in love with its colder tones, but my eyes can't take the way it renders bricks and dry leaves.
