Ektachrome Type A 160

IMO, if you want to be a professional DP you can, with or without film school. If you have the skills, desire and it wouldn't hurt if you knew some people then you can be whatever you want to be :) Or maybe I am just being naive.

Minolta 660 XL-Sound (first cam works great)
Nizo 2056 (Just got this one a few weeks ago)

The Nizo is probably my favorite out of the two. Have yet to get film back from it though so I won't know until I get some developed :)

Ordering Online from Kodak

Couple of Questions

Hey,
Hope everyone is doing great here. I was just wondering if any other Nizo owners know if there is a run lock feature on these cameras? On another note does anyone a english translation of the manual for the 2056? Thank ya.

technicolor and marc,
Thanks for the help on the +/- function. Also to answer your question the dial is only marked with tick marks and not a number value so I am not sure how big of a stop it increments in. Anyone else with a Nizo 2056 or a similar Nizo know what the increments are on this? I put ...

It was my Nizo 2056 ...

Lucas,
I didn't mean to be defensive in my post. So true about making a derivative from film you shot for an original purpose I am sure I will find a good place for the film I shot. :)
