"Tigre" pinhole camera. What does the "SP Filter" tab do? (Instructions in Japanese)

Hi,

I have a "Tigre" pinhole camera. There are "regular" and "soft focus" modes that I understand. But what is the "SP Filter"? See attached for an example.

Many Thanks,

Todd

I found it! There is a link here:

However it is still a mystery, it says "SP Filter = Darker Edges" so I guess it is for vignetting. I am going to try with some film tomorrow and will post results if the camera is working.

These people are awesome , I visited SQ35 gallery and there is one vignetted picture, I think that SP filter used there.

Even Leica does not create such a professional instructions , its like created by space aliens. I loved it.
