A12, Prospect House

Test roll from a 1930s Lumiere Box camera.

 

I pull processed HP5 to 200 ISO (10 minutes Rodinal 1+50), reasoning that the camera was designed to be used in daylight with slower emulsions in mind, having a single aperture and a single shutter speed. The fixed lens, presumably set at its hyperfocal distance, is pretty sharp at the centre, and falls off considerably towards the edges.
