Beaulieu 5008-S
The Beaulieu 5008-S is a Super 8 cine camera from the French manufacturer Beaulieu, positioned in the upper tier of the amateur and semi-professional movie camera market during the 1970s. It was sold as a higher-end alternative to mass-market Super 8 cameras of the period.
At UK auction, hammer prices for the 5008-S have ranged from roughly £120 to £140, with only a small number of recorded results to draw on in 2026. As wholesale saleroom figures, these results sit below typical retail or specialist-dealer asking prices, and condition — particularly a working motor and clean optics — has a strong influence on what an example sells for.
Sales History
