Hello everyone,

I kinda of screwed up when i bought this camera, Quarz 2x8S-1M FILM MOVIE CAMERA.

Quarz 2x8S-1M FILM MOVIE CAMERA.
The camera and it's zoom lens was manufactured at KRASNOGORSK factory in Moscow, USSR.

 Technical data
Camera Type: movie film, film type: standard 16mm film, frame size: 4x5.5mm, 12, 18, 24, 36 frames/sec preset, internal light meter, single frame shooting, spring drive motor, intershangeable lenses.

Lens: Jupiter-24M 1.9/12.5

Let me say first that i know nothing about 16mm camera's and was super excited to find this one which seemed quite compact and a good reasonable price. i purchased it from from ebay. before purchasing it did show it to a friend who knows about camera's and he too assumed it was 16mm but its NOT!! it takes 16mm but its actually an 8mm?!?! goddess help me!
does anyone know if it takes any kind of 16mm film??

i feel like an idiot but....
i have not received it and i did speak with the seller about this but....
the ad was a bit misleading but ultimately it was my fault. so know i have a camera that i did not want??

Miriam
