Coronet Fildia 4

Description

Finally, i decided to shoot with the very simple and old Coronet Fildia box camera. It has a meniscus lens, one single shutterspeed and a built-in yellow filter. 

You can find a pic of my Fildia here: fav.me/d8krdco

I did not shoot the Ilford film, because i thought the shutter speed of my box was more like 1/30 or 1/60 instead of 1/100 and my light measurements that day (Minolta AutoMeter III) suggested a 25ISO speed film.
So i took a roll of Rollei RPX25 and developed it in Adonal for 11 minutes.

I really like the look of these, center sharp, corners with slight vignette and unsharp. Let's be honest: for such a simple boxtype camera, the results aren't bad at all!! 
My mistake: at these shutterspeeds you are prone to camera shake! Which is a bit weird when shooting in bright daylight.
