Don't throw your money away! 99% of Super 8 camera sellers are "garage sale pickers"; they slap two batteries in and call the camera "tested"; none can truthfully proclaim their cameras are professionally serviced/cleaned/calibrated. Having said this, if you are serious about film-making read on...
This camera has undergone a full CLA professional maintenance "Clean, Lubricate, Adjust". Camera was disassembled, timer system was reset and greased, old grease removed and replaced with fully synthetic grease. Zoom system fully disassembled and reassembled ensuring proper and smooth movement. Light seals replaced, numeric light meter/exposure system accuracy has been calibrated and it is very responsive. Viewfinder's dioptric system calibrated and with full range. Battery contacts replaced and/or improved/refurbished with no rust and excellent electrical conductivity. Focusing system calibrated according to Canon's calibration specifications, interior and exterior optics cleaned to the best of our ability.
Great for a low cost entry into the rediscovered world of Super 8 film photography with its amazing vintage/retro look, or for anyone starting off on Film School.
Please look at the photographs, they provide the best description.

Perfect condition (exactly as described), works amazingly, much more reliable than buying the best deal on Ebay. Thank you!

I just received my Canon 310 xl, and it came in PERFECT conditions! Thank you so much!
Thank you for sending the camera with such care and on time delivery. My fiancé absolutely loved it and such a surprise! Thank you!
The camera looks new and works great! We're on our 2nd roll of Super 8 film.
Due to my friend and I being amateur with anything analog/film related, I reached out to the seller multiple times for tips & tricks, and he was more than willing to help us. Camera is in good working condition, and my friend absolutely enjoyed shooting my wedding film with it! Highly recommend purchasing through this seller for all of your Super8 needs
Camera arrived quickly and packed very well. In fantastic condition especially given its age. Just shot my first roll today and it performed flawlessly. If you're in the market for a Super 8 camera that's been thoroughly serviced for a great price, look no further.. really. Thanks Andres!
