The Super 8 list at http://www.kolumbus.fi/puistot manintained by Anssi Puistot has been the reference for super8 cameras for years and years, but there were still a few gaps left and it was not quite up to date anymore. This was the reason to set up a wiki page about this and while a lot of people contributed (or will contribute ;) special thanks go to Anssi for allowing us to use his collected information here to make the ultra complete super8 camera list.
