This small and lightweight camera's incredibly fast F1.0 (!) lens is makes it an excellent choice for low-light\/available light film-making. It's also very convenient that the camera (including its automatic exposure) is powered by two ordinary AA batteries (not included). It's also a really nice camera for stop motion animation as it includes a dedicated single frame mode.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a very easy Super 8 camera to use, my only caution for less experienced users is that it's a bit difficult to precisely focus by eye alone when zoomed in to the telephoto end of the lens. I would recommend double-checking the distance makers on the lens before shooting if the sharpest possible footage is desired.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition notes \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe camera is in very good functional and cosmetic condition (see photos). It was tested with batteries and film cartridge (the film was not processed however). The film motor and auto-exposure are working correctly. The film plane focus sharpness and accuracy was verified on an auto-collimator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManual\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003ehttps:\/\/www.super8camera.com\/manuals\/canon-310xl-manual.pdf \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCanon 310XL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emarketed in August 1975\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003esilent super 8 cartridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eimage size: 4.2 x 5.7 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003elens: Canon Zoom Lens C8 Macro f : 1.0 \\ F: 8.5-25.5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ecomposition: 13 elements in 11 groups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ezooming ratio: 3x\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003efocusing: manual, 1.2 m to infinity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003erangefinder: aerial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emacro focusing: 0.215 m from film plane indicator (field of view: 84.4 x 118 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ezooming: auto (coupled to film drive, 6 sec at 18 fps) and manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003efilter size: 43 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eviewfinder: single-lens reflex with adjustable eyepiece: -4 to +2 diopter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eviewfinder information: under exposure warning mark, film transport indicator, battery check lamp and macro indication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eexposure control: automatic exposure control; TTL Servo EE with a CdS exposure meter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emetering range: 250 ASA, f\/1.0, 18 fps - 25 ASA, f\/45, 18 fps and single frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003efilm speed: automatic for 25\/40, 100\/160 and 160\/250 ASA (daylight\/tungsten)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eASA notching: 2-pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCCA filter: built-in 85A filter, automatically cancelled with loading of a daylight type film cartridge; manual cancellation is possible with filter switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003efilming speed: 18 fps, single frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eshutter opening: 220 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003esound: no *remote control socket: no\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ecable release socket: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emovie light socket: no *accessory shoe: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003efilm counter: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ehandle: retractable, chamber for penlight batteries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003efilm drive motor: DC micromotor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ebattery check button: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003epower source: 2 x AA batteries only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eweight: 545 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edimensions: 39 x 112 x 176 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003etripod socket: 1\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Canon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32090513571926,"sku":"","price":375.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0265\/4401\/3398\/products\/il_fullxfull.2215523258_qvvo.jpg?v=1585019971","url":"https:\/\/www.newwavepool.ca\/products\/canon-310xl-super-8-movie-camera-f1-0-8-5-25-5mm-power-zoom-macro-tested-working-ideal-for-low-light-filming","provider":"New Wave Pool","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
