I have it as a backup camera and for shooting in "dangerous" environment.

It?s a very basic camera without 24 fps but a astonishing good lens.

framerates: 9 and 18 fps

shutter: XL - fast movements get wiped, camera movements always with notable strobe effect

makrolens 8-48

split image viewfinder with stop indicator. Eye adjustment must be checked before every time using the camera, as it disadjusts very easyly.

no fade possibility, no exposure correction possibility, very small and light weight. Very rough and loud motor, makes the whole lightweight camera trembling when not held very firmly. Difficult to make steady shots, compared with a heavyer camera.

Runs many films with only two AA cells.

I would look for a not XL camera with 24 fps possibility...
