The sound on 18 fps seems a bit high pitched. I suspect it is running a bit fast. Anyone know how to adjust the speed? Cheers Mike

There are two pots on the board to adjust 18 and 24 fps. You can do that without need to open the body only by taking out the light cover. Becareful not to turn so hardly as they are very old.

I think you will find the speed pots are near the power supply on this model.
The pots that you can reach inside the light cover are not the speed adjust, they are associated with audio circuits if I remember rightly.

Mike, I think you are right. I might have mixed up with Sankyo-800.
