Please Help: Trying to identify a Super 8 1960s-era camera

Hi, everyone:

Please help me to identify the make and model of the camera in the attached photo. It was used by Beatles assistant Mal Evans in his recording of events in the bandmates' lives. Thanks!

Well, it isn't a cine camera. It is a TLR that shoots 120 film.

Outstanding! Any suggestions about how to go about identifying this TLR in terms of model?

Looks like my model "2.8F" with pistol grip, Bay III shade and Rolleiflex pentaprism.

And with an accessory pistol grip I think.

That looks more like it, I was just guessing.

Thanks so much, everyone! Any sense about the Super 8 camera Paul has in this photo?

A Walrusflex?
