[edit] Comments

At the first glance Sankyo EM-30 and the Sankyo EM-30 XL seem to be the same camera. But they aren't since the non-XL-version has got a shutter degree smaler than 220° and no manual exposure. The lenses seem to differ, too. More: see Talk:Sankyo EM-30.

Auto exposure only supports 40ASA and 160ASA films.
