Reviews

Produced in the 1980s, this is one of the last models of super8 camera Bell&Howell ever sold. You are limited by 18 fps, but this is nevertheless one of the best "run-and-gun" cameras. It fits some nice features into a very small package. The lens is decent and great to have manual exposure on such a basic camera. The viewfinder is very bright. The body is made of a hard plastic which makes it very light, and the trigger and buttons have a very professional feel.

A good camera for the beginner or casual enthusiast, it's worth every penny of $40, but I wouldn't spend more.
