The Super 800 Electro is the top of the line Yashica Super 8 Movie Camera from 1970. Yashinon lenses were made by Pentax who reputedly made the fastest and sharpest zoom lenses back in the day. Yashica also had a reputation for building the best auto exposure systems and the fact that 40 years later many of their cameras are still metering perfectly bear that out. This camera is all metal and built to last. The Yashinon lens displays nice filmic bokeh and graininess is above average for a super 8 lens. If you find one in good condition, buy it! It will probably rune forerver. What's not to like? No macro.
