The Sport Finder variant also has a separate set of flip-up guides that allow you to aim the camera while also seeing the view around the camera. This is particularly good for fast action, but also enables the camera to be used in portrait mode (which is a challenge with the regular waist-level finder) Condition Body - excellent overall condition with light signs of usage.

It takes 4x AA batteries in the handle which folds away when not in use.  See the gallery for a test film shot with this camera. This camera has a number of very useful features that not all Super-8s have, as you might expect from Nikon: The viewfinder has a Split Image focusing screen - much more accurate than most Super-8s Manual exposure control, which also enables you fade in / out of scenes Meter works with a very wide range of film speeds The left side of the camera has a footage counter, remote socket and frame rate selector. The zoom lens can be operated manually or motorised via the top Tele/Wide switch. This camera normally also needs 2 x SR44 batteries to operate the light meter.
