First, many thanks to Rick Oleson for his excellent "home shutter speed tester" instructions! Rick: I followed the instructions, and I've been able to test the shutter speeds on my Yashica Penta-J. Now for my box camera question: I've just loaded my Ansco Cadet with a roll of Tri-X. I'm just curious: What's the typical 'average' shutter speed of a box camera? Does anybody know? Also, what's the nearest distance that one can get to a subject and have the image still be in focus? And finally: Should I keep a small bit of gaffer's tape over the red exposure counter window? I'd remove it just to make sure I've advanced the film enough. -CJ |
