Using the Retina IIIc takes some getting used to. Unlike vintage Leica and Canon RF cameras, the IIIc's film advance lever is on the bottom of the camera. And then there's the EV system that works together with the camera's built in exposure meter. Finally, the IIIc simply has a different "feel" to it. But after you've dealt with these differences, you'll be more than pleased with the images you can create with this excellent camera.
Below are several photos I took recently using the Retina IIIc. The camera sported a UV filter but no lens shade. Rather than fiddle with the camera's exposure meter and EV system, I used the Sunny 16 method for determining the outdoor exposures. I estimated the indoor shots. Matthew Gallant processed the film and scanned the negatives at https://www.memphisfilmlab.org/shop.
