Good Super 8 cameras

Can anyone suggest a good a camera for someone intersted in trying out the format?
I'm interested in experimenting with super 8. I like the results I've seen people get.
There are a large number on ebay, but I have no idea which are the good models.
 
I have a Canon AutoZoom 814

No idea how it compares with other models, but I like it a lot.

Films at 12, 18 & 24 fps. Manual controls for focus & exposure, as well as automatic settings for exposure if you feel lazy.

It's not the quietest camera in the world, but you don't really need to blimp it either.
 
The three best - in my opinion - are:
Beaulieu 4008 ZM II - I shot two features with this camera.
Nikon R10 - the first camera I ever bought
Canon 1041 XL-S - a solid camera with a great lens and
pretty good under low light conditions.

The others:
Canon 514 XL-S and 814 XL
Elmo 612S-XL / 1012S-XL
Bauer and Elmo make solid cameras on the lower end.
