[edit] Comments

Camera was available in silver and black.

Some source say that this camera will need 2x 1.35v batteries for the lightmeter?

Nearly the same base as other Nizo´s: 480, 481, 560, 561, 800, 801

Some modified Nizo´s do not need lightmeter batteries: all ADAMS64 models 480, 481, 560, 561, 800, 801 (including macro) some models with new socket and cable for sync sound recorder - for using only 6 x 1.5V AA batteries without any PX625: http://www.film.project-consultant.net
