Hi everyone. I just bought a Braun Macro MZ 864 and I'm having problems working out how to control the exposure. I have put new batteries in for everything and while the motor runs fine, the light meter doesn't seem to work. Usually I shoot with an external light meter anyway so was hoping to do it this time too. But I can't for the life of me figure out how I can adjust or set aperture/shutter-speed on this camera. Does anyone out there know? Or have the manual? Any help would be much, much appreciated! Thanks, Sophie

Hi everyone. I just procured a Bauer C 5 XL Macro. I bought film before being given the camera – 50D, 200T and 500T. Will these be ok to use in my camera? I can't find the instruction manual online (weirdly I could access the wonderful site www.super8exchange.com just last week but now it seems to have been overtaken by a hotel site?! Does anyone have a manual by chance?), but I did read that these cameras usually read 40 - 100 ASA, and there might be a problem shooting with newer stock... Sorry if the answer is obvious, I'm coming from a photography background so this is new to me and I don't want to waste a ton of money on processing if I need to find another camera. Any advice would be much appreciated ?
