Have been tinkering with a Canon Autozoom 814 that had some corrosion issues in the drive and meter battery compartments. I fixed the drive, but the meter is still dead. How hard is it to get inside one of these? Maybe I can re-wire it if the corrosion ran the wiring. I would hate to trash it, but I ...

I personally haven't used either but I have used a citrus cleaner called Goo Gone found at the local Wal-mart and have had no ill effects on the film whatsoever. It cleans the film great and then I go over it with a silicone cloth to lube it.

I too have an Elmo Super 104 but no manual. Would really like to find one for reference. Can't seem to find one either for my Canon 310XL. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I buy all of my bulbs from Ron Miller at http://www.replacementlightbulbs.com in Greensboro,N.C. VERY good selection and ships at a reasonable Priority Mail rate.

Hi. I have had 6 of these and they ALL suffered the same fate. The plastic gear at the motor becomes soft over time and when it is used, it breaks and renders the camera useless. Had the design been better, I would still use these as they are unique looking but with the trouble I've had with them, I ...

Hello everyone! I found a place in my home state of South Carolina that screen prints t-shirts and I saw one that had a Super 8 camera on it. I'm not sure what brand of camera it is but it still looks cool. I ordered one and am totally satisfied with it. If you want to look at it or place an order ...

You have got yourself one of the better cameras out there with this purchase. I,too, scan flea markets and thrift stores and find these gems. As far as getting to know your camera, look online and do a search for that camera model and include the word"manual" and see what comes up. Getting a manual ...

That's all I do is stack 2 Weincells together and they work like a charm.

Is the Elmo Super filmatic 103T movie camera super 8 or reg 8? Thanks.

I've tried that with no film and looked in the viewfinder and saw that the light meter goes all the way to the underexposure side, so I guess it closes all the way.

I have a Sears C-131 that has several controls on it and was wondering, when you use the fade button on these types of cameras, when you get your film back, is the fade complete to black or just close to it? I haven't run film in it yet but I wanted to know what to expect from this feature before I ...

Oh, I have a lot of questions. How do you contact Martin?

Does this really work on lubing films and will it be safe? I know it would be a whole lot cheaper than the manufactured cleaners.

All of the colors showed up true. It amazed me also that the meter was showing that not enough light was there and it still took.

I had the filter in place. Didn't realize that I may have needed the extra light by displacing it, but it didn't matter. It turned out great with no color shift of any kind.
