Okay, that is a design genius of a camera, particularly the film exposure protection. Why don't all film cameras have that. Wind on/rewind crank, so simple. Will look for one.
I have this camera and I love it and the fact that if for any reason you open the back then the shots already taken they are protected because the way the film is loaded. I got mine a few years ago at a very good price of £35 on Ebay. Now it is priced at a ridiculous amount from £99 to £195. That's stupid but there you go .
Thanks for the video! This is maybe a dumb question. But when rewinding the film, how do I know it’s back in the canister without opening the back of the camera?
Actually when you wind on the film it goes into the left side which is light protected so if you accidentally open the back the exposed film is safe In its canister and inside the left hand side. You will lose one frame. So when you have finished you turn the button marked R and rewind the film with the wind on lever back into the film canister.
Cheers for the introduction to this little beauty. Have just purchased one and hoping its fully functional when it arrives .
I hope you enjoy it. :)
Got one too and my first Film is in. So ready for the results

I hope you find one. It's a great little machine.

Shocking how much some of the older cameras go for, isn't it?
Do i need to set the aperture when taking pictures without flash?
No. The camera will do everything in daylight.

You actually wind the film back into the camera as you take the photos. When the film os finished, it's back in the cannister.
