I never knew they had produced one:

Does anyone know the history of this machine? Has anybody had experience with one of these?

Mike, NEVER heard of one. The link to the fact sheet shows it was at Photokina in 1976, but I suspect it was wishful thinking on Eumig's part. I doubt it ever entered the marketplace.

So was the GS the only Xenon Super 8 machine produced?

Looks to be a variation on the S824D HQ LUX. (must work out how to convert mine!).

Looking way back what you are looking at is the Eumig prototype and as far as I know it never got to full production run. Remember that the company did also have a number of financial problems which hampered them in later years and finally closure. [set5_b/set5_b/troll.gif]
