Comments[edit]

It looks like this camera won't be able to handle the e64t correctly.


All in all, a good camera for beginners that have not made a film yet, because the camera is very cheap. You should remember to use a film type like Kodak Tri-X or Ektachrome 100D. The zoom motor seems to be a little bit weakly. My one makes a squeaky noise when it's in use. But when the camera is open, the zoom motor and its gears can be oiled and cleaned very easy.
