Finally cleaned the 2nd Zeiss Ikon Box Tengor and these are from the first
roll, TriX 400 pushed to 1600 using HC-110F (1+100) 50 mins, semi-stand.
Aperture was set at widest, f9:




Quite gwainy, but didn't think I'd get much of anything.

Results are reallynot bad, but I cannot believe it is an attractive camera for walkaround. For me you are an expert in great results with pocketable P&S cameras, that Tengor do not fit in your pocket I think!?

Bill, you are always one step ahead Wink
Your pics remind me my Kodak box that is asking for film...

Regards.

Jes.

Minolfan and Jes, thanks! I dropped the film on the floor 3 times in the
changing room, found out the reel was not completely dry and had to
get another. Mad

The Box Tengor is certainly not as compact, but doesn't weigh much
either:



I now have two working cameras and the rangefinder seems to work quite
well in both! Laughing Wink

Lunch boxes! you can rig them for stereo! Laughing

Nice results, the point of using such an anachronism is just that: using an anacrhonism.

I do need to go and clean/lube my Tengor's shutter

Jussi, these boxes are really easy to work on, hope to see some of your
work!

It wasn't a perfect world with this roll of TriX and will be the last roll of
such I ever buy in 120, gonna stick with Ilford Delta and TMAX 400 to
push film, and Fomapan for everything else. Here is one I'm not going to
even try to pull out of the fire:



I was turning the air a veritable blue in my changing closet fighting with a
wet reel. Laughing Laughing
