Chinon Pacific 12SMR Direct Sound Super 8 Film Camera

Found this vintage Super 8 film camera in storage, unable to verify it it works completely -- although it DID manage to spin the film winder at one point with fresh batteries. The original rubber lens shade was deteriorating due to age and possible exposure to ambient heat -- thus was removed. Takes 6x AA batteries (magazine included).

SOLD AS-IS, NO WARRANTY PROVIDED.

Ships to lower 48 contiguous states within US, excludes Hawaii & Alaska plus territories.
