Q: 1. Does this camera work without a battery or power supply?

A: Yes. The following camera does not need power in order to create great images.

Q: 2. Can you develop this film in a dark room?

A: This camera uses standard 35mm film. You can use any standard color or black and white film and develop it in an appropriate dark room.

Q: 3. How long (time) is 144 movie frames?

A: The Lomography LomoKino 35mm Film Camera shoots at 3-5 frames per second. And the frame is smaller than 35mm. So 144 frames in seconds is approximately, 28 seconds to 48.

Q: 4. If the camera can only shoot 144 frames per roll, does that mean for each 6 seconds (standard 24fps) video, we have to switch a new roll?

A: The film is actually around 4-6 fps max. It's hand cranked so there's no way you get 24fps. A film roll actually gives about 30 seconds of film. Think of it more like an old silent movie type rate. I got an 8 scecond sequence from 22 frames as an example.
