I used to sell those, they were quite impressive little cameras.
Good luck finding 110 B&W film. The only type that I believe was ever
supplied was Verichrome Pan, long discontinued in 110 and any other size
film for that matter.
There are those who maintain that you can reload properly salvaged 110
cartridges with 16mm film stock but the standard perforations will fool
and "Kodak" standard film counter, (which I cannot remember if this
camera has or not), or the perforated stock will not allow the shutter
to cock. Either way frame registration will be problematic.

I don't recall ever taking a 110 photo in my life. While I would love
to have a Pentax 110 set-up, I'll have to stumble upon one locally
because they just bring too darn much money for me to justify
otherwise. However, I did stumble upon a Minolta 110 SLR with case and
instruction manual last week for $5.
Heresy on the PDML? I remember seeing the ads in the Photo mags back
in the day...

Does anyone happen to have any 110 Black& White film that they would
be interested in selling? (Did they even MAKE 110 in B&W?) I have a
yearning for GRAIN. ("Back in my day, boy, noise was called "GRAIN"
and we LOVED it.")
