total newbie with a few questions

[famous beagle]

Hi everyone,

 

I just purchased a Nizo S800 camera from ebay and it's on its way. This will be my first super 8 experience, so I have a few questions.

 

1. Does anyone know of any resources for possibly getting owner's manuals (or copies thereof) for Nizos?

 

2. My main purpose for this camera is animation. I draw cartoons and would like to make animated cartoons. IF this is all I'm doing, will I need an editing machine? Or can't I just put the drawings in order and shoot them 1 frame at a time (since I will have all the frames drawn already)?

 

 

I'm sure I will have many more questions once I receive the camera and begin trying to use it, but that's all I can think of for now.

 

Thanks much.
