Watch the focus/lens ring when you close it. It has to be turned all the way in. If you don’t then it won’t close and you’ll think it’s stuck but do NOT push hard. The auto exposure flashes red when over exposed. That’s not a battery indicator, but maybe get a fresh one anyway.
It’s pretty flexible on the ISO ring, but definitely peel the paper off the cartridge and stick it in that back slot so you know the film’s ISO. You MUST hit the right film start for the 6x6 or 6x7 size you chose. That size screw has to be turned completely but not forced.

Lumography sells some color films that warp the colors depending on ISO setting. This is great with this camera because you can easily change and play with the ISO to experiment. They also sell a 3 frame film holder you should get. Here’s why:

You can get a “tracing light tablet” off Amazon for about $20, load the developed film into the lumography holder, and put it on the tracing tablet. Normally these are for tracing sheets of paper, but you can then use this and a digital camera to do highres scans cheaper.
