Interesting little camera and it looks to be in good shape.

Lee, is it still possible to get 9.5mm raw stock for these cameras, and does it have to be loaded into a charger, or do they load up form reels like standard eight?

I didn't realise that it was a 9.5mm camera that started the expression "Have a Dekko", I was brought up on the nottion that Dekko was a Hindi word that found its way into English usage during the days of the Raj, like "Pukka". Amazing what you pick up on Ebay - it's educational too! [Big Grin]

I buy all my 9.5mm camera film from here.
Film for the camera listed on ebay is only £7.95 which is process paid and also includes return postage. I have used much of Photoworlds film and the results are outstanding. Also won the International Film Festival using it for my film so it is good. It comes in 100 ISO and 50 ISO rating.

Photoworld 7a Victoria Street, Craig-y-don,Llandudno LL30 1LQ United Kingdom.

Happy filming !

Pretty sure "dekko" is Hindi-to have a look. Maybe the camera/projector folk pinched this word for their product? [Smile]
