    Ekran-4 Mechanical 2x8 format
    Cine Movie Camera
    Reversal Film 2x8mm - Double 8 Standard
    Very good condition, Work excellent.
    Vintage Soviet movie camera, released in the 60s.
    You can try to make your own movie, as our fathers and grandfathers did many years ago.
    Charge the film, shoot a movie, develop it, and watch it on a movie projector.
    Feel the spirit of the 70s.
    This film is standard 8mm film, also know as regular 8 film format or double 8.
    On the first pass though the camera, the film is exposed only along half of its width. When the first pass is complete,
    the operator opens the camera and flips and swaps the spools.
    The same film is exposed along its other edge. After the film is developed, the processor splits
    it down the middle resulting in two lengths of 8mm film (double 8mm), single perforated on each side.
    Designed for filming amateur movies. Designed to work with 8-mm (2 x 8 mm) film, wound on a reel. The useful capacity of the reel is 7.5 m of film, which makes it possible to get 15 m of the film.
    Semiautomatic setting of the diaphragm ensures promptness during shooting and excludes the possibility of error in determining the exposure.
    The main lens - three-lens anastigmat - gives a sharp image of the subjects without focusing on the sharpness in a large range of distances from 1 m to infinity.
    Replaceable optics on the rotary turret (telescopic nozzles 2 and 0.5x) allows shooting at different scales.
    Spring drive at full plant stretches 2 m of film.
    The shooting frequency is 8, 16, 24 and 48 frames / s, frame-by-frame shooting, the meter of the footage showing the amount of unexposed film. Compactness of the movie camera, its light weight, as well as built-in light filters attracted the attention of a wide range of film enthusiasts.
    Camera in very good condition. Glass is clean, no  fungus.
    Lightmeter is not tested.
    All shutter speeds looks appropriate.
    Camera is easy to operate and because of a simple design is very reliable.
