  1. "These early models are still largely overseen" seems to be vaild only for the European market... I just checked out ebay.com... $ 450... oops...
  2. Hi, writing my first entry into this forum, I can confirm that the Nizo sound cameras are the quietest super 8 cameras in the market. And they can read every meter setting, which the cartridge system was developped for. Also exposure correction like the Nikons. NikonĀ“s lenses may be a little sharper. The Beaulieu 4008 should be quiet, when being well-serviced. I have, so to say, a small private museum with these sound models... The 6080 looks more "pro", but I find the Nizo 2056 more reliable. It has less electronic functions. Today, this turns out to be an advantage. Nizo 3056 might also be a good recommendation. These early models are still largely overseen. But please note: all these sound cameras have a rubber belt within the motordrive. The belt system makes them so quiet. But after over 30 years, the belts may dry out and break. And the motor is underneath the circuit board. This issue should be difficult, but not impossible to fix. Two of the "museum" Nizos are still waiting for repair... Anyway, I recently used the 2056 and Wittner 200D. The 2056 was nearly mute with this film... very nice.
