HOW TO SET YOUR F-STOP
We recommend using hand-held light meter, light meter app based on the film ISO you are using and the 1/30th sec shutter speed. (Please DO NOT use the guide on the camera lens. The guide is for film ISO that is no longer available). See our video on using a Light Meter App.
After processing this gives 50 ft. of film (about 4 minutes showing).
Spring-driven, smooth and quiet running. When fully wound it will expose feet of film, with a positive “cut-off” at end of run. Fast crank-wind handle folds neatly away when not in use.
Footage Meter: Sets automatically when film is loaded into camera
