Comments[edit]

Besides being one of the smalest Super8-cameras, it's the base for a very flexible system since you've been able to add at least these extensions:

  • Pistol Hand Grip
  • Wide Angle Lens
  • Telephoto Lens (8-32mm f/1.7)
  • Cinemascope Lens (Anamorphic Widescreen Lens)
  • 35mm Slide Copier
