    Not likely, at least not for any ammount of money you'll want to pay.
    Cheap sollution: hearing aide batteries. Go to Rite Aide and ask to see them. Find the biggest ones that put out 1.35v and still fit your camera. They probably won't fit perfectly. If they are thick enough to make contact, you just have to pack something AROUND them so they stay in place. If they DON'T make contact, get some tinfoil and pack it in untill they do make contact. I'm sure someone will have a reason why this is a bad idea. You might want to use a battery tester with the tinfoil to see if it affects the voltage-output. If it's close, I'd live with it. The photo-cell in your camera is 20+ years old anyway... the chance that it is dead accurate even with exactly 2.7v would be a miracle...

    Hello,

    I am just trying to figure out who carries those little round batteries for super 8 cameras? Would a camera store have them?
