Films for the Praktica autoreflex S-TL
The Praktica autoreflex S-TL exposes 35mm film. This type of film is still being produced and can be processed by most photo laboratories without any problems. Two great films for the 35mm camera are the Agfaphoto Vista 200* and the Ilford Delta 100*. Both can be used to take beautiful color or black and white pictures.
The Praktica autoreflex S-TL can be mounted on a tripod. A thread for a cable release is also available. In addition, there is a self-timer. The camera needs one VARTA V 625 battery (eBay / Amazon*).
