Are there anymore images of it, other than the single 2/3rds front view?
Until the full allround views are available we don't know what it's capable of.
Any thing from Chris at SRS?

When I click on the Amazon links I just get a default 'not here'page.

The worry is that this is a project camera that has, somehow, been miss represented by the French importers.
As such , even though announced and advertised, it may not exist.
I hope I'm wrong and that this will be a replacement for my aging K200...

Why hasn't this camera been advertised/anounced here in the UK?
Does it actually exist?

Filters?
I've tried them and don't bother now, if you're carefull you don't need them for protection.
Best advice? get a cheap one and play.

Just had a thought, when viewing negatives whether colour or black and white there is always a light source behind the image. As womble asked about a light source in the lid, if you do not have one would placing a mirror or tin foil over the negative and using the scanners light source have the same effect?
I do not have any negatives to try this out myself so can't say for sure if its feasible
I've tried and ended up buying a cheap negative scanner from Maplins like this LINK.
Although not high resolution, 5mp I think, these are affordable and easy to use, although the quality can be variable. If you get serious then you could move up market.
As for developing B&W film, the AGFA Rondinax mentioned earlier is spot on. 60 odd year old technology still work!
If you want to shoot B&W film to develop yourself try this company, I have and they're OK

...Actual reason is so I can surf while the boss watches TV in the room next to the Kitchen. We can talk through the open door and I can follow things by listening.
Oh, and the fridge is ..just..here...
