Theres a Yahoo Group:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/bh_filmo70
the email list isn't too active, but, Webb, the guy who runs it is a
fount of information and willing to answer questions. The site for
the group houses many pictures and documents in the 'files' section.
Shooting with it: since it has no extra features, you have to do
everything manually, and no reflex you never know exactly what you're
getting. This is a little intimidating at first, if you haven't shot
with equally spartan MOS cameras, but success yields a feeling of a
kind mastery and one-ness with a long cinematic tradition. And while
the camera is running, you never worry about it screwing up, since
it's built like a tank (literally). As for ergonomics, handling,
usability etc. that kind of depends on what kind of grip you use, and
what kind of finders you get for it.
