First of all, I'd just like to say a big "Hello" to everyone - first post baby! : )
Second of all:
Today I bought an 8mm camera from a thrift store, but I'm not sure how to advance the film, there is no crank on the side to wind it up, so I am pretty stumped. one side of the camera has the film counter and a knob that has "10", "16", "25", and "40". It also has a filter in and out dial. The other side opens up the camera so you an load it. The front of the camera reads "AMC Automatic Eight".

This is my first time ever dealing with an 8mm camera and I would really like to get into it, but I cannot seem to find this camera online anywhere and it's seemingly impossible to wind. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Will post pics if need be.
