Hi again Chris-yep im a member of this forum too! If you want to try my krassie
before you buy your welcome. I would still discourage you from a k2 as they are
cartridge loading, and try to get a screw fitting lens as you can then go mad on
cheap tele lenses, but getting wide is a problem. Even a peleng is not that
great on a Krassie.However, i am developing a 35 to 16 lens adapter, meaning
that a 50 will mean 50 on a 16mm camera, not a 100ish! Also i have a prototype
variable shutter working. Cheers-I will develop your film this week!

members!!!Basically, I have shot Super 8 and video (in its many formats) for
almost 30 years, although for the past 15 or so I've shot predominantly on
video. However, video has never had the charm and "magic" that film always had
for me, and recently I dusted off my old Bauer C700 super 8 camera (found right
at the back of a drawer), put a fresh set of batteries in it and set it running.
I was amazed to hear it purr into life, seemingly as good as the day I bought
it. So I bought a roll of Super 8 film to test it...Anyway, I digress somehwat,
but basically my renewed interest in the joy of FILM encouraged me to do some
research online and to check out Ebay for various film equipment... Then I came
across the Krasnogorsk 3 and was astonished to see some of
