Very nice shots there, Rich. Living on the other side of the Pond, it's interesting to see the Arizona that Arizona Highways magazine doesn't show us. The July 2016 issue featured the Mogollon Rim. Welcome to the PTD forums.

Welcome, Rich. Looks like the Ciroflex is in good hands. I lived in Tempe a long time ago; nice folks there, don't miss the weather. :-)

I enjoyed seeing your Ciroflex photos, especially with the square format. The picture of the snow melt really shows the advantages of that big negative. Welcome to the forum.

I should move this to Medium Format at some point. Here's an old advertisement for one of the models.

Despite the first line of the ad, I can't see a news photographer buying a Ciro instead of a Rolleiflex.

I've got one I was considering rebuilding, but it has a caved in lens board. Could be tricky.

This is exactly what this place needed. New Blood. Most activity here in ages.


If we all saw the world the same no one would need a camera.

Thanks.

I think it's a Model 'E'. I also use a Model 'D' that started it's life as a Model 'B', & an Ikoflex IIA. When I was a kid, I couldn't see any possibilities for the square format, but now I like it.
