It is an advantage that she doesn’t care if the pictures end up “good” or “bad”, “pretty” or “ugly”.

Well, you really went old school - Batman camera angle & everything!
- Circular polarizers
- Red filter for dramatic dark skies in black and white
- ND filter that I just bought and haven't used yet. I think I bought one that's slightly too strong, and too cheap because it has a pretty bad blue-ish color cast
Unfortunately, the film took a long time getting here and now I'm off on holiday. I'll be taking it with, but likely won't have anything developed for 3 weeks or so.
So? How bad are the resulting images?
Understand, I'm not, nor ever have been pro. Not even a very serious hobbyist.
But, when I was out and about, I'd keep two in my bag.
One was a more automatic job with higher speed film (say 800+) for shots that I couldn't set up because they were unexpected, and my oldest manual camera for dialing in exact shots that was loaded with a slower iso film, maybe 200 or lower. Fuji was what I usually went for.
I was usually either taking landscapes or other relatively static nature pics, or pics of animals (pets, livestock, or wild), so I never managed to be fully happy with all the pictures on a roll if I didn't have two set up.
If I could only carry one, it would be the autofocus one, but loaded with a 400 ish fuji or Kodak (pretty much the only two brands I could guarantee finding without ordering stuff).
But I was not a regular b&w user, and it's my understanding that those films don't perform exactly the same at a given iso in every lighting condition.
But, yeah, two cameras was my default if I was going out specifically to take pictures.
