Canon Auto Zoom 814 Super 8 Camera & Case

Description

Canon Auto Zoom 814.  Heavy, high quality, metal, mechanical Super 8 camera from the 1960's in its case. Features a fast f1.4 power zoom lens!  When we got this camera it had a set of old AA batteries still in it and evidence of them leaking in the case at one time. We cleaned the whole camera and battery compartment, and with some effort and fresh batteries we we're able to get it running. It runs well at its 3 speeds of 12, 18, and 24fps. Power zoom works. Another set of new batteries power the auto exposure system. The needle does move in the viewfinder somewhat but does not seem to be functioning properly. However this camera allows one to set the aperture manually!  Please see all photos for condition. Full specs and owners manual can be found online., The lens glass looks clear with no haze or scratches, a few insignificant marks. A small ding up front that doesn't effect the filter threads. Has it's front metal lens cap. Comes with it's case and good shoulder strap plus a sealed Kodachrome super 8 cartridge (dated 8/83). Another cartridge is inside the camera. The battery handle shows corrosion to the black paint. These used to come with a small monopod which fit in the case. It is missing and not included. Being sold as-is, a working super-8 camera with issues.
