thanks for the info skorj,
can you give more info on this light dark control? is it controlling the exposure somehow? i mean when sholuld it be pulled to the darkside and when to the light? is it about lighting, or where the light is falling and what you want to expose? i guess i could play around with it, but considering the cost of the film i'd rather have a general idea of what its function is.
as for the SX-70, i just saw it in the window after i left the shop. i didn't note which series it was and there was no price tag. i'll have to go back and ask and see what it costs. just did a quick google search and
this appears to be the camera i saw.
