Viewfinder is nice and clean. Fully responsive manual and auto exposure. \u003cstrong\u003eThis camera is sold as Bstock only because the battery check and filter switch LED light INDICATORS do not work on this camera; to be clear,.. the filter switch itself works just fine just not the LED light that turns on when the switch is set to Indoor, but you don't actually need this as the switch itself tells you when the camera is set to it. The battery check LED does not function either, so in total two LEDs do not function on this camera. NONE of this affects the actual camera's funcitoning when it comes to producing good quality film.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCamera details:\u003cbr\u003eLens: Chinon Zoom 1,2 \/ 7 - 42 mm (equivalent to 43mm - 266mm for 35mm \"Full Frame\" using crop factor of 6.19)\u003cbr\u003eMacro focusing\u003cbr\u003eSplit Image Focusing\u003cbr\u003eAuto \/ Manual Zoom\u003cbr\u003eFrame rates: 18, 30 + single frame\u003cbr\u003e- Pressing the 30 f\/s button during filming increases the frame rate so when played back at the normal 18 f\/s frame rate creates a slow-motion effect.\u003cbr\u003eShutter degree: 220\u003cbr\u003eAuto Exposure\u003cbr\u003eBacklight Control\u003cbr\u003e- Holding the BLC button in then activating the shutter adjusts the exposure so while this camera does not have any exposure compensation, the use of the BLC button can be used to over expose the film\u003cbr\u003eCompatible Films types: Daylight ASA 25 and 100 Artificial Light (Tungsten) ASA 40 and 160\u003cbr\u003e- Has feelers for both the film speed notch and the filter notch found in Super 8 Film Cartridges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSTORE-WIDE DISCLAIMER: all super 8 cameras are about 50 years old, please understand that no lens will be perfect, having said that, due to the low resolution aspect of Super 8 format, most imperfections will not be seen once film is developed.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"margin: 0px auto; position: absolute; z-index: 2147483647; visibility: hidden; left: 147px; width: 0px; top: 74px; height: 0px;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"z-index: 2147483647; position: absolute; visibility: hidden; left: 132px; width: 50px; top: 59px; height: 20px; font-size: 10px; color: black;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant Note on Condition:\u003c\/strong\u003e We specialize in professional mechanical servicing and full functional testing of these vintage Super 8 cameras.
