I think mine only has a top shutter speed of 1/50 though... Do you know how to load film in it? I've been trying to figure it out with no luck. Thanks! I own one very similar to this.

I'd "bracket" my shots by shutter speed unless you know the shutter to be half reasonably accurate. If you have a really good film/photo shop nearby, you might be able to talk them into loading it, if you don't want to learn how (such as if you just want to shot a roll for the fun of it.) Is the orange disk the window that shows you the exposure number on the back of the film? It’s most likely a Kodak 120 roll film camera, and yes, it’s still made.
