New Year's Day Walk with my new Fujifilm TX-1

A christmas present to myself: The Fujifilm TX-1, twin brother of the Hasselblad X-Pan panorama camera. We had a little walk on the area of Zeche Zollverein in Essen, an old coal mine and part of the route of industrial culture in the Ruhr Area.
I simply love this camera! The pics are so crisp and clear, no light leaking and you can switch between formats while shooting the roll. Just great!

    Lovely results, congrats on a superb camera! I wasn't sure if it would shoot Lomopurple but it did just fine. Don't try Redscale XR in it though, it will not accept that film, probably because it is wound backwards.

    Congratulations on your new "gem", and WELCOME TO THE CLUB! I am very happy for you. Your first roll looks pretty great!
    p.s. don't tell @bloomchen, he might be very jealous

    I was just about to put a Redscale XR roll in the xpan - so thank you very much @clickiemcpete for the warning.

    @vici, it will partly wind the roll and then stop on redscale XR. Then you have to pull out the roll and throw most of it away. I tried twice... Or who knows, maybe my machine is not 100% right, I don't know...

    @feelux, @yago56, @grazie, @clickiemcpete, @vici: Thank you so much, friends! I'm really happy with the first results. And, Peter, thank you for the tip. The camera didn't wind the Purple-roll first, because of the missing identification of ISO I think. But it seems to be a different problem with the redscale xr.

    @primula, @brommi, @kleeblatt: Herzlichen Dank für die Anteilnahme, Leute ;-)
    @bloomchen: Tut mir leid für den Seelenschmerz! Aber mir ging's über Monate genau so mit den X-Pan-Alben von vici ...
    @gepo1303: Weisse Bescheid ... ;-))
