hello,

I just been given a Kodak Specialist No3 with a rollerblind shutter and a 1900's barrel lens.

I had some good results using paper negs with 20 second exposures. I would like to shoot some film negative, however I cannot trust the rollerblind shutter and the higher iso of the film means I cannot 'remove and replace' the lens cap (my 'shutter) quick enough for the metered exposure.

Would it be possible to use a ND filter to reduce the shutter speeds to say 1-3 seconds and use the lens cap as the shutter? would this affect the quality of the image.

thanks in advance for any help or suggestions..

Neill
