Test roll - Voigtländer Vito

First test of a Voigtländer VITO automatic 1 from 1960, loaded with an expired ORWO NP20/80ASA. I bought the camera at e-bay for just 9 Euro a couple of weeks ago (I was the only bidder). At a first glance it was almost in mint condition but the display for the selen light meter was out of order (the glass was milky and the needle was not showing). When shaking the camera there was also something rattling...may be the needle unit of the light meter? Anyway - the light meter did measure and the aperture changed in accordance with the time settings (just 1/30,1/60 and 1/125) when set on automatic. For the first roll I just set the camera on automatic (the ASA setting, covering 25 to 400 ASA, allows to fix between 50 and 100, so quite adequate for the ASA 80 Film). I am happy with the results. Even the coupled selen light meter (automatic setting) does a good job - is challenged though in difficult lighting situations. Next roll will be in colour - but I feel that this can develop to a good vintage point and shooter. Home processed in Rodinal 1+75, stand developed for 1hr.
