Talk:Chinon 672 Power zoom synchro sound

Open issues[edit]
Frame rates[edit]
Anecdotal: I have a 672 Power Zoom and frame rates appear to be normal or slow motion (so I would guess that is 18 and 32) There is no option to set the frame rate to single frame and no frame rate speed selector just a slow motion switch.
JP: So either the listed "Frame rates" are incorrect, or there are two versions of the same camera (with and without "synchro sound") that do have different frame rates.
Sockets[edit]
Anectodal: Mine does appear to have a sound socket (labeled s) as well as remote control (labeled r) , but as I don't have the manual I can't be sure (hence anecdotal)
JP: The "s" could also be the abbreviation for "single frame"?! Anyone has got a manual or can clarify otherwise?

The lens problem[edit]
Old text[edit]
Lens: Chinon zoom 1,7 / 8 - 48 mm (Another source says: 8-40 mm).

I own this camera and know that correct values are 8 - 48 mm. It is thus a 6x power zoom (6x8(mm)=48(mm)) hence the "6" as first digit in the camera's model number (672) as per Chinon's models numbering of the time (model 872 had an 8x zoom etc).
