Which speed film to use

[roboflick]

Without a mirror and heavy shutter it's possible to shoot these folders at slow speeds handheld without any visible shake, plus it's a large piece of film. I've shot at a one second hand held speed and blown it up to 11 by 11 without any problems. Enjoy your folders. I have an isolate that is a great high quality pocket camera

I really like a 100 speed film for most of my folders. In a box camera, I'll go with a 400 speed film. But it also depends on the light.

If you're prepared to consider colour film, look at the new Portra 400, it's extremely tolerant of over and under exposure, maybe especially under exposure. You can get your metering wrong by several stops and still looks OK.
