Thanks for the trip down memory lane! I used to look for the tower when we visited Florida and knew we were almost to Orlando when we got to stop here. So different now.
Hey! I just bought a ektasound 140, I have film and batteries inside it, but when i hit the little trigger i get nothing! the battrey check button yeilds a blue light and when the trigger is depresed I can see a red light that responds to sound from the mic.
I was born at Miami Baptist, and grew up around what is now Town N Country. It used to be all Strawberry fields. I haven't been down there in 15 years.( I live in WPB now)
Nicely done. I was born in Coral Gables, FL in 74 and we moved to Orlando in 75 where I currently live to this day and I do remember vaguely visiting the Citrus Tower as a child. I remember hearing stories of how you could see Citrus Trees as far as the eye could see. Thanks for posting this.
Hi. Super 8mm sound film has been discontinued but if you can find any Super 8 silent film, it will work - altho without sound. The Ektasound 140 was a basic Kodak camera with a mild zoom. All automatic - no manual controls. Find some film & have fun with it.
