AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
In the auction of the professional Super 8 film projectors, the Rolls-Royce of the genre: the Beaulieu 708 EL Capstan Drive Stereo, produced in France in the late 1970s. This sophisticated device stands out for its revolutionary dual-motor Capstan Drive pulling system and for its refined two-track stereo audio section. In this configuration it mounts the most prized and bright lens in the catalog: the extraordinary Schneider-Kreuznach MC Xenovaron 11-30mm f/1.1 German zoom.
The lot is presented in excellent overall condition, well preserved, tested and working, complete with rare accessories and original manuals.
Optics: The projector is equipped with the legendary ultraluminous Schneider-Kreuznach MC Xenovaron 11-30mm f/1.1 zoom lens with multi-coating. The lenses are in good condition and free of scratches. The zoom and focus operate correctly.
Mechanical and Electrical: Tested and functional. The dual-motor electromechanical system responds correctly to commands, the lamp lights up, and the film advance at 18/24 fps and rewinding mechanisms are operable. The audio amplification section, fader controls, and front LED indicators also respond correctly.
Aesthetics: Excellent overall condition, as clearly documented by the photographs. The control panels and inscriptions are sharp and legible. The Italian instruction booklet and the vintage warranty are intact.
Included in the lot are the Beaulieu 708 EL projector, the Schneider Xenovaron 11-30mm f/1.1 zoom, a large empty reel, the power cable, the original Beaulieu microphone, and the Italian instruction manual.
Tracked international shipping, fully insured and professionally super-protected packaging to ensure the maximum safety during transport.
