Originally on sale from 1970-74, this top quality camera has a full die-cast metal body. 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 (Serial No 570099).

This camera comes with the original leather case and 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

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.

Takes 2 x SR44 batteries to operate the light meter.

Has an adjustable eyepiece and battery check button on the top.
