Super 8 CAMERAS
Super 8 cameras have been enjoying a resurgence, as they provide a unique film look that's hard to duplicate.
These cameras have been tested with film, the 50 ISO Daylight, negative film, and it worked with the built-in meters. While we can't guarantee your results -- we recommend you test a roll first -- they are all capable film performers.
An early and basic Super 8 camera. It features a fixed focus zoom lens, and auto exposure though an external meter. You can also manually set the aperture.
This camera expects 40 ISO tungsten film, and has a built-in tungsten-to-daylight filter. It works seamlessly with 50 ISO Daylight film.
We include a set of ND filters, to allow you to use faster films. For example, with 160 ISO film, you can put a 2-stop ND on the lens and still use the camera meter outdoors.
