Stylish German engineering at it's best ! The Nizo Integral 5 is a very impressive looking camera, with a built-in folding shoulder rest and a zoom microphone that extends out to the front. The microphone can be removed (since sound film is no longer available), and the shoulder rest folds back neatly when not in use. See the gallery for a short test video we shot with this camera. Made in Germany from 1979-83 the body has a row of control switches on the left and a pretty good set of specs. It comes with a 8-40mm f/1.2 Schneider lens (5x zoom). The controls on the camera give the following capabilities: Interval Timer - shoots one frame every 5 or 15 seconds. 25/40 and 100/160 ISO (daylight/tungsten) film speeds Automatic exposure control with manual override Backlight exposure adjustment Fade-in and Fade-out 18 / 24 frames-per-second shooting speeds + single frame Daylight / tungsten filter switch Hand grip containing the batteries (6 x AA) Remote cable release socket In full working order, this camera has a very clean viewfinder and lens, and the split prism focusing is very clear for good focusing accuracy.

This is a beautiful example of the Canon DS-8, which is an example of a camera that takes double Super-8.  This film format is an interesting hybrid - it is the same size as 16mm film, however the camera shoots on one side of the film. After the spool ends the film is flipped around so that you shoot on the other side. Note that this camera does not take regular Super-8 cartridges, so it is more of a specialist format. Here is a company that sells the film (and processes / scans them): DS8 Films – On8mil.com Canon provides more information on the camera here: Zoom DS-8 - Canon Camera Museum (global.canon) The camera is actually very similar in form to the 16mm Canon Scoopic 16, but it has some additional capabilities, notably a variable shutter and the ability to fade out / fade in and also reverse the film. This means that you can do lap-dissolves (not possible on the Scoopic 16). It shares the same motorised automatic aperture system as the Scoopic. Advantages of double Super-8 (over Super-8) include: Superior film transport system (based on a 16mm camera) for greater image stability compared to a plastic Super-8 cartridge Longer film runs - a DS-8 spool is 100 feet, so you can film 6 minutes continuously before having to flip the spool (compared to around 3 minutes for a Super-8 cartridge). One full DS-8 film therefore lasts for 12 minutes in total. Condition Cosmetically in excellent condition In full working order. Motorised aperture fully operational, and all film speeds working well. Clean battery compartment and with original battery holder (designed to take 8 x alkaline AA batteries) Very clear lens with no scratches or mould Clear viewfinder. A few blotches on the focusing screen, but generally very good.

This is one new rubber o-ring for the door seal on the Eumig Nautica underwater Super-8 camera. Not tested to the full depth capacity of the camera, but we have had no problems with these seals. Remember to grease the seal when installing, to avoid it wearing out with friction as the door closes. Note that if you are servicing your camera, this is a different size to the seal that joins both halves of the camera. Contact us if you need that seal.
