Interesting idea. Though in this case, it becomes a 64T only camera, unable to correctly expose the B & W films. Then again, once converted, I wonder if the backlighting mode would give a near enough exposure for Plus X.

I would love to make my Eumig run at 48fps?

Since someone felt inclined to reinvigorate this topic, check out this Bauer camera on ebay:

Cool camera, but the most interesting thing is that Super 8 List shows a great accessory for it called the "Bauer Aquarius" underwater housing.

This thing looks amazing. Anyone ever seen one set up, or better, actually used one?
