is there a camera you would suggest Miguel?

Thanks both! You are correct about the counter Richard. I will watch this meter on the next cartridge I shoot. On my first the counter only ever made it to 14 after shooting over and over and I can garuntee you that I didn't open the door to the camera - I'll have to look into that somehow. because I am new with the camera I'll take any more advice. Hopefully after my next reel I'll have some infor to add myself. Thanks again to both of you! kindly, Alex

Hello all, I am new to this website so hopefully this post is not to redundant to seasoned members. I am extremely new to shooting on film. I have recently purchased an old Zenit Quarz 1x8S-2 Super 8mm off of eBay. The manual I have for the camera is completely in German and with my inexperience with a super 8 camera, I don?t even know how to tell if I have shot the entire reel or have cranked the camera too far after shooting a reel. (knowing how to tell that I have shot an entire cartridge is my main concern at the moment) Anyone know where I can get a manual in English for this camera. Or are there any owners of the same camera that can help me become familiar with it before I make too many rookie mistakes. Thanks so much!
