• (1) "The zoom lens may be desmunted and replazed, with the aid of an adapter and a 35 mm SLR still camera lens may be used." (instruction manual)
• (2) "The camera also has the Synchro-Zoom two-in-one system, which is exclusive of Nalcom. Here the moviemaker can do both operations by using a single finger for running the film and zooming the lens, by working only the button, which is for operations." (instruction manual)
