hi I recently got one od these cameras with some film in it. we were able to take about 6 pictures and then an "E" started blinking on the little screen, I changed the battery and now it just has a zero. Im thinking it is out of film to take pictures, so i pressed the rewind feature but i think its stuck. it made there winding noise for a bit, now it just make noise as if it can't rewind anymore but the film isn't rewinded all the way. How can i get it unstuck/ get the film out?
I'm so glad I ran into this video. I have this exact same camera. I got it for free from an abandoned house. For month i've been wondering how much it was worth and how it even works. Have you seen the after math of the photos, and how do you like them?
I’m so glad you ran into it too! 😆 I’ve not developed the film from this test camera yet and I personally have not shot anything with this camera yet either. So I can’t speak to the outcome of photos. Abandoned house?? I’m intrigued! Have you gotten it working yet? 👍
I love mine! It takes great photos. It looks like it has the original carry strap which has the film rewind tool on it, so you don't need to use a pencil or something to press it
Yes! I keep forgetting to look for that. I was told the same thing about the Canon Telemax. I work with so many cameras it’s habit to go straight for the screwdriver! 🤪
If everything else is working fine you might be out of luck. Try wiping the battery contacts with white vinegar and a cotton swab. Sometimes if it’s a little dirty the flash won’t fire. 📸
Oh no that’s not good. Not recognizing film. Inside film door there are metal contacts. Use same strategy of white vinegar and cotton swab and wipe those. See if that helps. 👍
Could you please warn people before saying that you’re going to rewind, I’ve never used a film camera before so rewinded my new set of film and now can’t get it out of the canister - great video otherwise :)
I have a tool for that! There should be a link in description for a film retrieval tool. Super handy for situations like this. Sorry it happened. I thought I usually say “next we are gonna rewind film”. I will look into it and see what you mean. Thanks for feedback!

Hmmm not sure on this one. Sounds like the rewind mechanism is faulty. 👎 Sorry

i got a similar one but it has a date on it. how can i change the date?
Yes I believe it takes a separate battery inside the film door. Did you replace that? 👍
I got one but the flash isnt working, do you know how can i solve this?

@@TeddyJuras now the flash comeback, but got a new problem.. when the flash turn on, starts to flashing the letter E on the display 😰
Flashes E with film inside?
