Canon Auto Zoom 814
The Canon Auto Zoom 814 is a Super 8 cine camera produced by Canon in the 1970s. It uses the Super 8 cartridge film format and was positioned in the higher tier of Canon's consumer movie camera range, featuring a built-in zoom lens.
At UK auction in recent years, a Canon Auto Zoom 814 sold for around £62 at hammer (wholesale saleroom level, before commission). With only one verified sale on record, the value today is best treated as a rough indicator rather than an established market price, and condition and working order will heavily influence what an example sells for.
