Paul R Royar Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 When looking on super 8 wiki it says this camer needs 6 AA bateries to run and I found the place to put 4 batteries. Where do the other 2 go? Also, how do you test to see if the camera is working. Thanks, Paul Royar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Dunn Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 If I had to take a guess, perhaps the other two are for the sound amplifier, in which case you can forget about them because you won't be shooting sound. Just put the batteries in. It doesn't need film to run. You should be able to see if the meter is working, there will be an indicator of some kind.

Paul R Royar Posted March 26, 2012 Author Share Posted March 26, 2012 It also has a plug in for a 6 volt charger or something like that, do i need to plug it in and charge it before it will work? or are the batteries enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Dunn Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 That will be for running it off an external battery pack or 6V supply. There should be a switch built in to the socket to cut out the batteries, but if in doubt remove them. It replaces the batteries, it's not a charger.
