The Nikon R8 (and larger R10) are highly sought-after cine cameras. With excellent build quality from the die-cast metal body to the super lens, they are capable of delivering exceptional quality.
See the gallery for a short test video taken with this camera, including a test of the lap-dissolve function that this camera is famous for.
The R8 has an 8x zoom lens, with a very fast aperture of f1.4 giving excellent low light capabilities.
The R8 has some built-in advanced features that enable great creativity when shooting, including:
- Full manual exposure control (in addition to automatic)
- Fade-in and fade-out
- Overlap / rewind - to fade from one scene to another. This was a groundbreaking achievement that set the R8/10 apart from all other Super-8 cameras
- Variable shutter angle
- 54 / 24 / 18 frames per second
This camera is a legend among Super-8 enthusiasts.
The camera takes 6 x AA batteries in the sturdy grip.
