Good overview
This is a good overview of the process highlights. I was after a textbook, i.e., here's how to hold the paint gun, how to move it. This book is more along the lines of "You need a paintgun ."

An interesting camera
3 of 3 found this helpful First, A note. I bought this camera to giver me an alternative to my large format. I figured it would be less bulky and less heavy, and have an acceptable film size for some situations.
And there starts the review. The camera is incredibly heavy, much heavier than my larger format (which, admittedly, is made of wood) and almost as bulky. Where I will save bulk is that I'll be able to leave film holders behind, and the film itself will take up much less space.
The weight cannot be overstated. The hand grip led me to believe that I could hand hold the camera in most instances. This is just not so. The film holder in particular adds enough weight to make the use of a tripod mandatory. (As a side note, the grip is oddly only for the left hand. Most right-handed 35mm photographers are used to supporting the camera with the left hand and firing the shutter with the right. The opposite arrangement takes some getting used to.)
Now the good news. It's a solid camera, with many interesting features, including a bellows which allows large-format-like movements of the film back. The lens is superb (I picked up a 50mm f6.3, an ultra-wide angle suitable for landscape work; few 6x9 camera systems offer such a lens).
All in all, if you're looking for a medium format, especially one with an ultrawide lens available, this is not a bad choice. Just be aware that a tripod is a necessity.

A bit of gaming history
This is a piece of Star Fleet Battles history. The designer, a notoriously difficult individual, farmed this product out to a other designer, then made it hard for them to work. End result, a hot mess of a supplement that's fun to read.
