Andy, Mark is right. The Halina was my first super 8 silent camera. It was fairly reliable but as it was cheap the optical quality was not all it could have been.
It suffered with fall off of focus at the extreme edges and the auto exposure was not all that precise.

GS1200 Xenon with Elmo 1.0...great combo along with a 16-CL Xenon for that super bright white light.
