    Hi and help!

    Hi I am a super 8 newbie and I just bought the Kodak Instamatic M6 for now. My questions is with the exposure control. The camera uses the long ago discontinued PX-13 batteries. Do I really need this feature? can i just use my light meter to take a reading?

    If it is an instamatic, there may not be a manual override. If that is the case, then you would need a PX-13 replacement. I would contact Spectra Film and Video in North Hollywood to see about a replacement battery.

    Spectra's phone number is 818-762-4545
