Really? I thought no more liao....since its out since early 2006

i was reading the instructions (or attempting to read more like it) and it seems that you can put some kind of photo paper in the film at the back cover and take 1 shot at a time straight on the paper no film needed. trouble is u need to cut it to fit the frame on the back cover and u have to develop it urself.

just got mine today.. my first dive into alternative photography..

2 sets left..

[freakingloving]

anyone knows how to use it? cos i got it without the manual! ):

[J-Chan]

from what I understand, you load the film with the canister facing down on the left..
then pull it across to the spool on the right.. making sure the sprockets catches on the hook in the slot and the counter's gear..
close it with the back cover and set the counter to the mark on the body.. turn the right knob anti-clockwise till the mark makes a full revolution and you've got a frame ready to be exposed..

shooting wise, you've got 2 options.. pano or stereo as indicated by the dots at the front of the cam.. switching it toggles a divider inside the cam..
for pano you have to manually remove the cover from the centre pinhole and expose for whatever timing you want..
for stereo theres a L-shaped switch to trigger both pinholes simultaneously.. or you can open only 1 of the stero pinholes to get single frames.. but when you advance the film the counter should only rotate 180 degrees..
also advisable to set it up on a tripod as exposures usually are more than 1 sec..

reel back the film by turing the left knob clockwise

hope this helps..

vol 3 very flimsy... the shutter assembly keeps poping out in my bag

[quekky]

vol #14 last set left

[Zann Tiang]

max: just ask first lor. if it's out of stock then it wouldn't come to singapore already.
i saw in HK in 2005 and it was out of stock. so~ they can always restart production.

there's no such thing as last set~ only last available set in store. japan side should have tons left.
