The *ist just advances the film one frame at at time and rewinds at the end of the roll. I bought 3 of them in the past few years. With the battery grip it was a nice sized camera, compact but not too small,. The AF was pretty good (though focus points were clustered way too tightly). It is

I just noticed that the way those disposable plastic cameras work is they have the film pulled all the way out of the cassette and as you take pictures, the film is rewound into the cassette. All of the frame numbers come out back-to-front (i.e. #1 is the last photo & #27 is the first). It makes

Exactly. Cross processing is an entirely different animal. In modern times, some of the movie film stocks were designed to be transfered to digital video -- scanned if you will. So they scan rather nicely one frame at a time for the still photographer. Paul On Sep 21, 2007, at 8:21 PM, John
