Today received a 111 f and took it out to try the shutter especially.
Since the light was fading rapidly and i wanted to try the slow speeds put
the camera on a large ball head and went out ,causing it to cool down enough
for it to grind to a halt(at least the slow speeds).
These three are at 1/50 and 1.7.
Was the only speed that sounded a bit ok.
You might think the buildings in the middle of the second picture are
strangely distorted but thats how they were built at the time leaning out to
facilitate hoisting stuff and to save on taxes since only the ground floor
area determined the amount to be paid.
