I knew the film that came with the camera was crap, so I used it to learn how to operate the camera. It looked like a pretty smart setup. Then I took out the roll of film that came with it and tried to put in a 27 frame Fujifilm roll. The tension mechanism didn't hook the film, so it didn't pull it out of the film canister. I opened the back of the camera 4 times and the tiny pivot pin broke. This camera is a flimsy piece of junk, you get what you pay for. I'm glad it happened before I went on vacation so as not to waste my precious vacation time on disappointments. Look for something different.
