Vintage Braun Nizo S56 Super 8 film movie camera for sale — sold AS IS.
Mechanical functionality appears to be correct. I recently tested the camera with batteries and a cartridge of film and can verify that it work mechanically. However, I have not had the film developed so I cannot state with certainty that the camera is properly exposing the film. That's why I am selling this AS IS — I cannot guarantee that it is 100% functional, but from a basic testing standpoint it appears... to be.
There is no user manual and I don't know really anything about the various controls and buttons and levers and sockets throughout the camera, but I believe it has functionality for an external microphone/sound input.
As you can see, the camera has several cosmetic blemishes. This was purchased in the early 2000s from the University of Utah Surplus and Salvage, which is why it has an institutional inventory sticker on the body. The case also has a label indicating it was from the Dept of Geography. That should give you some idea of the camera's background and provenance. The footplate at the bottom of the handle has detached, but is included.
The camera comes with a case and a UV filter lens attachment.
One thing to consider: As of 2018, Kodak is producing Super 8 film cartridges again, so if you were to buy this camera you could do so knowing that new film is available for it.
In the case, the camera weighs roughly 5 pounds. Shipping to US only.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
