Blame the Captain, I snuck out a partner for the Retina Automatic III, a nice little Retinette IIb.  
I put an old roll of Kodak 100 in it with a 2001 date. I know it has been in the bottom of a camera bag for at least 7 years.
My basement is fairly cool.
  I was just guessing distance.

Well--- I guess the big horse Kodak Motormatic 35 will be next, I have been ignoring my little Kodaks way too long. 3 or 4 to go.
     I just discovered something, the MM can use series 5 filters. I noticed the front ring on the lens was a little loose, and I'll be darned, they be ah filter under it.----Now to find those filters hidden away some where, or did I give them to someone???
AT my age they call it 'brain exercise' Huh???

 No still plenty of them ladies out there but Pot Neck has an interesting history and name. Also went up Turkey Creek a few months ago and the Copperheads were about a foot thick in places.

Glenn, if any adjustments were done they were done at Costco, they develop ,no prints and I  put it on a DVD/CD ? For less than 5 bucks.
    I did crop just a tad off of the hood ornament pic.

Superb shots, Ronald.  It's amazing what fine image quality the Retina/Retinette cameras produce.  I wonder what one would cost if made today?
