Bauer Royal 8E Macro

[rfox]

I was very lucky to have won a truly mint Bauer Royal 8E Macro and was wondering if anyone could answer a question: does the handle fold out, or is it permanently in the horizontal position? I can't figure out if this is supposed to move.

BTW, this is a really wonderful camera -- I'm shooting some Kodachrome today!

The handle on the Bauer Royal turns.I don;t have mine ine front of me now so I can't remember which way it turns,but if it's facing forward for storage,you turn it and it rotates to a pistol grip position.

If it's the same model I have,when it's in storage/tripod position,the trigger cannot be pressed as it is stored in an upright position.You need a cable release to run it in this position.
