The all metal mechanical design, with a carrying handle on top, in addition to high performance, made this camera very popular among many 8mm movie camera lovers.

The camera has been quickly tested and is working, there may be hidden defects. Item exhibits minor signs of usage and wear. Externally, the camera is near mint. Look photos! These are minimal and don't detract from the overall appearance and functionality of the item. I did not check cameras with film. Photos attached to the listing are part of this description.

I describe to the best of my knowledge and belief. Since this is a private sale, I do not provide any warranty and do not offer a right of return- consider this before bidding!
