bauer a512 manual/knowledge

[paulrecalde]

i have just obtained a bauer a512 and i have had zero luck finding a manual...it seems the manuals for the a line of bauers are hard to find. does anyone know where i could get a manual from or is anyone familiar with it so that they can point out to me what all the knobs and switches do? this seems foreign to me because there is no exposure controls just speed and 2 other controls that i have no idea of

thanks

Manual exposure control knob you can find on top of the camera opening that cover of it like in almost every other Bauer super 8 models.

About manual, try this (It's a Germany version, but with pictures I think):

There is a picture and basic information on this camera on my web site taken from 'Motion Picture Camera Data' book.
