Hi Jerry,

I agree, it does appear to have 12/24 capability because of the little
switch on the right side back near the back hinge just under the "rail".
But it's kind of a bastard camera...one side has the earlier half moon under
the strap clasp, and the other side doesn't.  Perhaps the person who
installed the 12/24 mechanism (or some other errant repair person) forgot to
re-install the half moon, but none the less, for what this camera is selling
for, that would be a concern for me.
