Classic vintage Super 8 camera by Nizo, a former subsidiary of Braun AG. Non-expensive, portable and has incredible build. It is a perfect compromise between heavy and light construction and is mostly made up of metal parts. Designed and marketed under creative guidance of Dieter Rams, the pioneer of "Good design" in 1974 and considered to be the best model from the Nizo series, as well as some of the best Super 8 cameras ever built - without a doubt, the best looking Super 8 Cameras out there!
Still has the original receipt of 2000 Deutsche Mark :)
Super 8 film cameras were first manufactured in 1965 by Kodak who introduced amateur film format cameras to the public. These vintage cameras make wonderful vintage videos, just like the ones now simulated by many smart phone applications, only authentic ;)
Special features:time lapse, fades, lap dissolve, auto-b, declutchable zoom. Top of the line :)

Condition:
Great vintage condition. I did not have an opportunity to test it out with film, but all the parts are smooth, whole and responsive. The motor and other mechanical parts seem to operate with a battery. I see no reason why it wouldn't work. However, sold as is.

Shipping costs are sometimes a burden, but that's what makes Etsy tick:
- Overage of $2 or more will always be refunded.
- Combined shipping is very unpredictable, please ask for quote
- I try to use as much recycled packaging as possible, for reasons well known. Let me know if it's a gift. I'll give it a comfy home for the journey ;)
