Manufacturer: Niezoldi&Krämer / Braun

Design: Dieter Rams The famous desinger was for more than 40 years head of Braun's design department and he is responsible for the way our Nizo super8 camera look. His design ethos 'less is more' has given us probably the most 'beautifull' super8 camera's ever. Many are influenced by him like Jonathan Ive who works for Apple.

Comments

Nearly the same as Nizo S 800 except:

• no extra (not available) 2 x 1.35 V batteries for lightmeter!
• 50Hz pilote tone for sound recording.

Some other modified Nizo's do not need extra ligtmeter batteries: all Adams64 models: 480, 481, 560, 561, 800, 801 (including macro)
