to be honest, it's not really the turn dial which prevents me from using it too often, it's more than the earpiece weighs three tonnes !

i've got more film cameras than i want to admit, although i can't remember the last time i really used one to be honest, and some rolls of 35mm and 120 film in the refrigerator even now. they are so old they would probably turn out red if i develop them but i'll keep them just in case...
