Canon 814 S8mm film camera
Tested and fully functional
The Super 8 system had a film pressure plate inside the cartridge, which was unsuitable for high-end cameras.
At the beginning, Eastman Kodak did not guarantee a fast lens speed, such as f/1.4. This model was developed to achieve a high-end camera for the Super 8 system.
At the beginning, a 6x zoom lens was planned to be attached to this model, but Canon cleared
numerous technological hurdles to apply higher magnification with a high-speed zoom lens.
These hurdles included a film-driving technology within the allowance of depth of field by a fast f/1.4 lens, focusing and color reproduction for the Super 8 system, which had mainly tungsten films that always required CCA filters during the daytime. Finally, the Auto Zoom 814 Super 8, which had the world first 8x f/1.4 zoom lens, was introduced to the market.

Canon 1014 S8mm film camera
Tested and fully functional
In principle, it was impossible to rewind Super 8 film further than 90 frames.
Canon used this characteristic to develop an overlap system comprising a rewind system and variable shutter mechanism. This overlap system was applied in the Auto Zoom 1014 Electronic, which was actually marketed later.
Both higher zooming magnification and lens compactness were pursued.
Finally, a 10x f/1.4 zoom lens was realized with a filter diameter of 58 mm, applying a new zooming mechanism. In this lens, the second lens group with
negative power and the third lens group with positive power moved to opposite sides. This zooming method became Canon’s standard and was very effective for high magnification zoom lenses. This model had slow motion shooting at 54 fps and also achieved unmanned shooting, such as continuous single frame shooting.
