Just got around to checking this out, great breakdown Manny!! Thanks so much for the kind words about my channel also! Such a great little film community we have.
No Doubt, it definitely is an excellent community!! Thank you bud, for all the hard work you put into it. I don't miss an episode! Cheers and thanks man
i just got the 104 and i put the light meter battery in the tray but it won’t fit back into the slot of the camera, i’m using a 1.3 v wein cell battery
Hey there not sure why that's not working for you. Usually they fit right in snug but not to tight. Sorry wish I could help out with that. Thanks for watching!
Hey I watched you clip which is awesome 👏
Btw Recently I got Elmo super 104 as second hand.
After insert a battery, I confirmed that zoom function could work but pulled a trigger for a recording without a putting a film, then it didn’t work.
What do you think about this occasion ?
Hey, sorry this took so long to answer. hard to say though It may be that the motor hasn't moved in a while and needs to get some lube. if you have a cable release try using that on the button on the body of the camera. if nothing try using the release on the single frame which is right below the viewfinder. if that one fires a frame off do a few more than switch to the regular fps release. This may unstick it but it will need some lubrication no matter what. Hope this helps thanks for watching and happy shooting!
Many, do you know about "off the wall" brand cameras that use lenses made by top manufacturers? I have an Alstar Pz 803 super 8 camera and I suspect that the lens is made by Pentax.
I have seen quite a few hard to say what the lens is. I normally gravitate towards certain glass on my super 8 Schneider mostly. They were used by Bauer, nizo and Beaulieu. I also have quite a few Elmo's and Canon each used their own optics. The camera you have I have never heard of but it looks nice from the info I found on it. Lots of super 8's out there that are excellent but aren't well known. Thanks for watching and happy shooting!
can you use 500t film stock on the 104?
You can but it won't auto expose correctly. Have to manually set the fstop. It's about two stops off with auto. thanks for watching.
does the Elmo 106 film in color ?
It can shoot any of the color films. It will auto expose 16/25 asa 160/250 asa. Best if you meter it yourself, for the tungsten stock it has an 85 filter that is engaged with a red slip plastic piece that is found at the top of the camera; filter in: when inserted in the back of the top handle. Hope this helps, thanks for watching and happy shooting!
