I wonder if you're going to be able to buy it paired with a Turntable.

On a serious note. The ratio is close enough to 4x6, A6, size. Which for normal 35mm an all-in-one in one film processor can process and print. What I'd like to know is will these machines be able to recognize the vertical format and be able to print it to an A6? Or will you need to go to a specialty shop? Which may be true for any film nowadays.
With downloading digital images for printing, I've sometimes had to put filler in and trim it myself later to get the format I want. IOW, I had to fake it out. What I'm getting as is will an automatic machine need to print to a larger size and then it would need to be post trimmed to A6? Or would the specialty shop manually process and print?
