hi guys,

anyone has tried this lens using 6x17 camera? recently i got a hold of a fotoman 617. the camera is quite a joy to use!
i've tested it with 2 rolls. then, there i noticed some of my shots had distortions in it. maybe because the way i scanned it? the film wasn't that flat. is this normal?

test shots:

With that wide an angle of view, did you made sure the camera was perfectly level? The pin-cushion distortion could be due to film curl.

sorry forgot to mention. these images are taken handheld.. yeah it might be the film curl. neopan is quite curly before i scanned it and when i scanned it isn't that flat since i'm doing it DIY.. i think i need a good scanner then. thanks!
