hello! I am interested in the camera, I would like to ask a couple of questions: Is the H/L switch only for adjusting the zoom speed? Is the red “BLC” button on the front to block the back light from sneaking in and does it only work with a cartridge in? And finally: how do you adjust the aperture in manual mode?

@@carlosalejandrocervantesle5649 hello there, The 518SV, 514XL and 310XL are great cameras. 514XL and 310XL are much smaller, so more convenient to take around, lens on 518SV is better. We would suggest you the 310XL for memories, as it’s super reliable and compact enough to take around, extremely easy to use as well! It will be great for your purpose! There are other options we would suggest as well: The 318M, the smallest cam out of them all, great for traveling, common customers choice. The AF 310 XL, the only one with auto focus and the auto focus works great! We have perfectly working AF 310, 310XL and 318M in stock right now! For further questions I remain at your disposal!
