No luck - no red LED. On closer inspection there is some green gunk on one of the battery contacts :( Thanks so much for your help Geoff.. It's much appreciated.

Geoff (or anyone)... I purchased the very one you linked to (agfa family super 8) I've put AA batteries in and Tri-x film but nothing happens. Would it attempt to work without the battery cell (manual says the small battery cell is for exposure) ? Or should I give up and assume broken?

Thanks for all the advice - much appreciated.

I am really sorry but I wasn't sure where else to turn to after searching high and low on the web. My financee and I want to allow our wedding guests to take pictures on old vintage cameras and I thought it would be a good idea to allow them to use a super 8 camera too. I have just purchased my first ever super 8 camera on eBay (EUMIG Viennette 8) and I need help with 2 questions. 1) Is if best to buy Ektachrome 100d or Ektachrome 64t to use with the camera? 2) Is there a typical setting for indoors that the average guest will be able to use to give ok results? Thanks for any help given
