@@TeddyJuras hopefully it’s all good 👍 might become my daily carry 😂 although film prices might need to come down a bit or I’ll take a pic or two a day
Hi! I can't for the life of me get film to load in this camera. It just makes a long beeping sound and will not advance the film. It has a fresh battery. Any ideas on what the issue might be?
The place where the number of frames left should be just has an S on it. Does this mean the counter is not working, that I didn’t load the film properly, that it isn’t taking photos..? I just bought it and haven’t ever owned a camera like this before 😅
Hey maribelle! Could be counter not working. Could be film not loading properly. When you put the film in and close door… does it sound like it is making a noise?
@@TeddyJuras Initially it did make a noise that sounded similar to it loading in the film! I ended up facing my fear today and opening the door and found that the film didn’t completely roll in 🥲 I think it’s working alright now. The counter has started to work. It looks like it’s counting by 2’s which I don’t understand? But! It’s taking photos nonetheless 😁 Thank you!!
I bought mine for £5 in a charity shop can’t wait to put some film in!
Nice! I’ve had a ton of success with these! They are built like tanks… I’ve never found one that didn’t end up working! Have fun with it! 🎉

appreciate the video. Is there a way to turn off the flash? or is it always auto
It’s always auto. No way to stop flash from firing. 🤷♂️
are there any battery alternatives??
No I believe it only takes the crp2 battery here: bit.ly/crp2battery
@@TeddyJuras can you check if two cr2 3V batteries work?
I don’t believe I have any af-1s in stock so not able to. Sorry 👍

I don’t. I believe I’ve had this before. Sounds like a bad film advance. Figure it out?
Hi! I have this camera and the film wont load, doesn’t make any sound. It worked fine the first time but now I cant make it work, the battery is okay
Oh no! That doesn’t sound good. Obviously a new battery and try wiping the battery contacts with white vinegar and a cotton swab. 👍
