  1. Thanks for the great answers! @PafDeep Thanks for the (Super) 16 Film Clarification. I simply did not know that theres a difference between 16mm and Super 16. So 16mm it is. I am currently trying the warm-environment trick and after that (if it doesn't move) the manual shutter moving. I opened the Camera carefully and there were signs that it was opened before (scratches around the screws for example) but not in a long time as the outside screws were really dirty and greasy and all screws were pretty tight. I opened some of them but got to nothing so i put them back and closed the cam again (nearly everything is obscured behind a big metal plate) and its really heavy, so i think the motor should be inside. I just tried the shutter manual moving trick and it does not work. its totally solid in place.
  2. Hey Guys, i now got the camera and it looks like single perf to me. But i have a bigger Problem: If i wind it up, the shutter button does nothing and i cant "unwind" it. Is there a easy way i could fix it? And is it possible to open these cameras on both sides? I just managed to open the left side, where the film goes into. Herer are some Pictures: http://redditgifts.com/gallery/gift/70-year-old-original-film-camera-what/ Thank you :)
  3. Hey Guys, this is my first Posting here, so if it's in the wrong place, please tell me the right one :) I got this beauty here for christmas: https://www.etsy.com/transaction/171185452?ref=fb2_tnx_title A Keystone Criterion A-9. I have never worked with S16 Film before, so my obvious question is: What kind of Film stock does this camera take? I know there's a difference between single and double perf but besides that? What's the best way to get film stock for this camera (if it's possible)? Does anyone of you know this or similar cameras and give me some tips/hints whatever that could help me to get it to work? Thank you in advance!
