I'm glad we still have the option to project our movies with the reversal film. I get the most fun out of threading up my movie I shot and watching it that way. I also have some 16mm film that I've been thinking about having a print made from as well. For my projection pleasure.

Two tone paint with crome ! How classy is that!

Film came out very good.

Thank you for the review. I just got one on Ebay. Looking forward to trying Super 8. As much as I love regular 8, I am looking forward to the convenience of a cartridge.

Good luck! I had this model less than a day and it went kaput!

Back in July I bought the same one for 3 bucks at a habitat for humanity store it worked fine for a few feet of film I was testing it with then it DIED on me! 😭☹️ I actually captured on camera the moment it died on me too!

I have a question! If a red light comes on while you film, does that mean it’s recording or warning low light?

[@FilmPhotographyProject]

The red light is a low light warning. Enjoy shooting. - Mike

[@ZeboTV]

@@FilmPhotographyProject Okay I’m so glad I have your attention right quick. No matter what setting I go too (lightbulb/sunlight, etc), the red light appears. I’m shooting with 40A and I’m on the microstar PZ camera. Any suggestions?

[@ZeboTV]

Please respond when you can

where did you get the sleeve for the battery´

[@artofambrose]

Any idea what the minimum focus distance is on this? Anyone out there have a manual?

[@FilmPhotographyProject]

Fixed focus lens - About 6 feet.

[@artofambrose]

@@FilmPhotographyProject aww, drag. So no selfies or close shots then, huh? Bummer! So it goes. I have two of these that I’m taking overseas, and I’m really souped to work with them.
