55 yards up the hill

3rd roll, nice sharp images this time. I think that the folding mechanism has some play and doesn't hold the lens absolutely rigid. With the shutter being quite fierce it shakes the lens when fired causing the out of focus shots. My remedy was to support the lens with my hand while firing, seems to work. Better light as well meant that i was able to stop down to f8, f11 . 6 1/2 shots this time including two accidental exposures! Next roll I'm going to put the mask back in to get more shots, in theory 16.

    Thanks for pointing out! I did not study with care when I first viewed the album. Unbelievable crisp and contrast rich shot with a camera from the 30ties. I should start too to get my pre-war cameras to life too: an old Ernemanns, Agfa Box and Agra Billy Rekord.

    @rolfmg thanks, I enjoy giving these old cameras a new lease of life. I've just shot a roll on my mpp microcord, next up my 1936 rolleicord, I also want to put some more film through my box brownie.
